Barely three days after the fatal Air India crash in Ahmedabad, the country has again recorded another aviation tragedy.

The incident which happened early Sunday morning in Gaurikund, a remote area of Uttarakhand, killing all seven people on board the Bell 407 helicopter.

The pilot also died on the spot after the aircraft went down at approximately 5:30 AM in the rugged Himalayan region, known for its treacherous weather and difficult flying conditions.

According to preliminary reports from Indian media, the helicopter was carrying five adult passengers, one infant, and the pilot at the time of the crash.

Emergency response teams were quickly dispatched to the crash site to conduct recovery operations. As of now, authorities have not released the names of the victims, pending notification of their families. The cause of the crash remains under investigation. Officials have not yet commented on whether mechanical failure, weather conditions, or other factors may have played a role.

Truthlive News gathered that Uttarakhand has a history of aviation accidents, with mountainous terrain and unpredictable climate frequently cited as challenges for pilots operating in the region. Sunday’s incident adds to a week of national mourning and concern over air safety in India, following the Ahmedabad air disaster earlier this week.

Aviation authorities are expected to review safety protocols and initiate a thorough investigation into both incidents.
