Rescue Underway for Two Foreign Paragliders Stranded in Dhauladhar Hills
Two foreign paragliders from Austria and Poland are stranded in the high-altitude Dhauladhar hills after failing to return to the designated landing site near Bir-Billing. Rescue efforts have been hindered by adverse weather and freezing temperatures, with an Army helicopter unable to locate one pilot due to poor visibility. Ground teams and volunteers are searching in challenging terrain. The incident underscores the risks of paragliding in the region, where over 30 pilots have died in past accidents.
