The IAF grounded its 30 single-seat Tejas Mk1 fleet as a standard precautionary measure after a Feb 7 landing incident at a frontline base. The jet overshot the runway (suspected brake failure), sustained major airframe damage (likely write-off), but the pilot ejected safely.

This is the 3rd Tejas incident since 2024. HAL calls it a "minor technical event on ground," not a crash. Inspections are underway to rule out issues; no permanent grounding.

The proposed agreement reportedly focuses on the advanced Block III variant of the JF-17 Thunder.

The multi-phase defence package is said to include not only the aircraft but also pilot training, weapons integration, and a comprehensive logistics support arrangement.

CDA will build and repair a 9-kilometer service road from Faizabad Interchange to Gulberg Greens. This project aims to ease heavy traffic and improve the flow of vehicles on one of the city’s busiest roads.

The new and upgraded service road will give drivers an alternative route, helping reduce pressure on the main expressway. Officials hope this step will make daily travel smoother and faster for commuters.
