The incident occurred around 2:00 PM. There was no immediate information on the number of troopers or crew aboard the aircraft.

"The aircraft was chartered by the central paramilitary forces on the Jammu-Srinagar sector. All troopers aboard have since been moved out safely from the aircraft," the police officer said.
