Greater Noida Tourist Dies in Bir-Billing Paragliding Accident; Investigation Underway
A 26-year-old tourist from Greater Noida, Shubham Dobliyal, died after falling from a tandem paraglider at the Bir-Billing site in Himachal Pradesh's Kangra district on November 10. The pilot landed safely and alerted others, leading to a search that recovered the body from a forest near the landing zone. Police registered a case against the pilot for causing death by negligence, and a magisterial inquiry has been ordered to investigate equipment failure, safety lapses, and procedural compliance. Earlier, a Bulgarian national also died in a separate paragliding accident in the region.
