Bolangir; Much
to the surprise of SaanDangar gaon,a village located 60km away from here in
remote Gudvela block ,a balloon fell from sky in the paddy field on Saturday
morning which created curiosity and panic among people.
The balloon had a circuit and battery. However as people gathered, somebody took away the battery.
But the points which created curiosity and remain unanswered were1) Who and why would float a balloon and for what purpose. As it had a circuit and battery ,it appears that ,its movement might have been controlled by remote somebody.
But for what
purpose? To study the atmospheric pressure/ changes?
And from where it was sent and it was going to?
Interestingly, over the area there is an air passage route and every night one can see aero plane moving in the sky. More curious point is this area located in the junction of three districts namely, Bolangir,Boudh and Kalahandi.
The balloon which was flying in high altitude fell most likely due to malfunctioning. But from where the balloon was launched and when is not known. How it fell here? Due to technical problem or others? Till today no clear report has come out and the suspense continues over the fallen white balloon
According to reports, five decades ago such a balloon had fallen in Mohangiri area of Kalhandi district
Tusura police has seized the balloon and looking into the incident.
A thorough investigation is required into the incident to unravel the truth
