RM, will give info in Parliament for Helicopter crash. He has reached Parliament.

Probably this is crash site, not very sure, but it should be around here, based on what could be from Sulur Airbase to Helipad at Wellington, near Coonoor, in TN state.

Just heard in news its 8kms from the Helipad site, in line with Sulur Airbase.
