- AMRITSAR - A high
alert was sounded along the Indo-Pak
border in Punjab in the wake of landing of
an "unidentified flying object"
in Pakistan's territory, BSF Senior
Commandant Darbara Singh said in Amritsar
on Sunday.
-
- The incident occurred on
Thursday evening when some flying object,
which took off from the Indian side,
landed in Pakistan's territory hardly 300
yards away from the zero line, he said.
-
- The area was identified
on the Indian side as BSF Post Fatehpur
falling in village Chann Kalan, he said.
-
- Singh said "as per
the eyewitness account of BSF constable
Jagdish Parishad, who on Thursday evening
was keeping vigil on the International
Border, had seen some flying object like a
hot balloon carrying three persons, who
disembarked after landing in Pakistan's
territory".
-
-
 Singh
said "now it has become difficult to
ascertain the reality that the flying
object landed in Pakistan territory after
crossing the Indian Territory. As the BSF
Constable is not educated enough to
identify the object.
-
- "Since the constable
has never seen any para glider, fan
gliders and even a hot balloon during his
service tenure so it is difficult to
ascertain the authenticity of the
matter", he said.
-
- "In this regard the
BSF have already handed over the protest
note to the Pakistan Authority for
providing necessary information of landing
object which has reportedly took off from
the Indian side with three persons,"
Singh said.
