One day after his celebrated return from Pakistan, Wing Commander Abhinandan Varthaman was visited by Defence Minister Nirmala Sitharaman at RR hospital in Delhi. The Indian Air Force (IAF) pilot is understood to have explained Sitharaman the details about his nearly 60-hour stay in Pakistan.
As he arrived in India, Varthaman was taken to the Air Force Central Medical Establishment (AFCME) which is specialised medical evaluation centre for aircrew of all the three services as reported by Indian Express.
A day after India conducted air-strikes at Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) camp in Balakot, Varthaman was captured by the Pakistan Army after his MiG-21 Bison was shot down as he chased Pakistan Air Force intruders.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
