The deceased pilots have been identified as Captain Gopal Krishna Panda and Captain A P Shrivastava.
An official spokesman confirmed that Chhattisgarh state helicopter crashed around 9.10 pm. “It was on a routine training sortie. Initial indications suggest technical malfunction as the cause of the crash”, he said.
A detailed technical investigation at the behest of DGCA and the state government shall be undertaken to ascertain the exact cause.
The state helicopter is regularly used for VIP movement and travel of senior officers within the state.
This is the second state-owned helicopter to crash. In July 2007, a state helicopter crashed on the hills of Chhattisgarh Maharashtra border while returning to the state after maintenance works in Madhya Pradesh capital.
Two pilots, an engineer and a senior technician were then on board the ill-fated chopper.
