This is the 2nd Indian jet to crash this month; earlier on 8th March, the Indian Air Force lost a MiG-21 after it went down while on routine patrol in Rajasthan. The reason attributed at that time was “bird hit after take off”. On February 27, the PAF – Pakistan Air Force had allegedly shot down an Indian IAF fighter jet when it violated Pakistani airspace over Azad Kashmir.
