Chennai, January 25

A helicopter carrying Art of Living founder Sri Sri Ravi Shankar and three others made an emergency landing at the Ukiniyin tribal hamlet in Tamil Nadu’s Erode district on Wednesday.

The spiritual leader was travelling to Tirupur from Bengaluru.

The other people in the chopper were two of his assistants and the pilot.

Sources told IANS that the helicopter made the emergency landing due to poor weather conditions and the pilot complained of difficulty in navigating.

Kadambur police who rushed to the spot on receiving the information told IANS that all the occupants of the chopper were safe.

The helicopter took off after an hour when the weather situation improved.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
