A BJP lawmaker in Rajasthan had a close shave after the helicopter in which he was flying appeared to have lost control. The helicopter carrying Mahant Balaknath, the lawmaker in Alwar, began spinning rapidly just after it took off from a ground in Alwar.
A chilling video shows the chopper, just a few metres above the ground, rotating violently. Locals can be heard shouting and waving as the helicopter kicks up dust on the ground.
