Today, at around 4p.m. the Coy which manages Paragliding whose Booking is done by the agents sitting opp the Petrol Pump ahead of Khutani and next to Restaurant Machan had a mishap.
The Paragliding instructor who was with a young Girl lost control of the Paraglider and it landed almost 100 meters short of the actual Landing Ground. To be precise, they landed on the Boundary Wall of Shikha Inn, Khutani, Bhimtal.
It was a dangerous fall and could have resulted in Broken Bones, Paralysis and maybe even death. Luckily nothing of that kind happened.
The point to be highlighted is are these Instructors fully Qualified and Certified. Also, some of these Instructors are absolutely Wild and Maverick in their practices and come for landing at Jet Speeds. Also, they just do not bother undertake Paragliding in the worst of the weathers.
In interest of Public Safety and unsuspecting clients, some regulatory authority must carry out surprise raids on them to check laid down compliances.
Staff of Shikha Inn, Children staying around Shikha Inn namely, Maniush, Neeraj, Akshat and so on were witnesses to this accident.
Sincerely hope that, you in the interest of Public and Safety will do something about it.
