BREAKING: Indian Coast Guard Dhruv Helicopter Crashes in Gujarat During Training, Three Dead
The Indian Coast Guard has launched an investigation into the crash, and further details are awaited. This tragedy comes on the heels of a recent safety upgrade to the ALH fleet, implemented by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), aimed at addressing a series of previous accidents. Despite the upgrade, the crash raises questions about the ongoing airworthiness of the Dhruv helicopters, which had faced grounding due to safety concerns last year. #IndianCoastGuard #HelicopterCrash #DhruvHelicopter #PorbandarCrash #IndianMilitary #CoastGuardHelicopter #HelicopterAccident #IndianAirForce #GujaratCrash #MilitaryTraining #HALDhruv #TechnicalDifficulties #IndianCoastGuardNews #GujaratAccident #IndianMilitaryLoss Also Read Indian Coast Guard Recruitment 2025: Apply Now For 140 Assistant Commandant Vacancies :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-coast-guard-recruitment-2025-apply-now-for-140-assistant-commandant-vacancies-4002493.html?ref=DMDesc Indian Coast Guard's SAREX-24 Maritime Search and Rescue Exercise to Commence on November 28 in Kochi :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/indian-coast-guard-sarex-24-maritime-search-rescue-exercise-011-4000267.html?ref=DMDesc Tamil Nadu's Marina Beach Cleans Up: Coast Guard Leads International Coastal Clean-Up Day Initiative :: https://www.oneindia.com/chennai/tamil-nadu-coast-guard-organises-drive-at-chennais-marina-beach-for-international-coastal-clean-up-011-3940951.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.178~GR.121~PR.152~ED.102~
