These photographs shared by Prashant Pandey, a student of East Point SSS show the cloudy trails left by the object that passed through Singtam today. The photograph was taken from Lower Sawaney, West Pandam.
BY SHITAL PRADHAN A small hamlet in an eastern side Silent raush on its way, The old silk route, More older it look Upon which I stay, Hey that’s Rongli, Rongli my birthplace Years went by, years dried up, Yet the small village is as it was, Silent, peaceful and introvert Today’s picture of Rongli, Houses as station bogie, Looks a cradle, from Chujachen, Upon which the blue sky, As if I can touch thee, Roaring River, As the legend we hear, Still watch with glee, The terror of 1890 somewhat forgotten, Yet another terrorizing moment, 68 was the year… 1968, When sky too wasn’t pleased. That was Rongli, Rongli of the past. Playing along the Baar-Pepal tree, Hiding in the Shivalaya, Watching videos and aloft Is a decent memory, now? Sweet time in treasure, Yet when I am in Rongli, I am happy, in whither sweet. Rongli my birthplace !
The cloudy trails look like one normally caused by over-flight of a jet plane at very high altitude. Actually the No 2 Squdaron IAF with their Brand New Sukhoi 30 MKI has just been deployed to Tezpur in Assam in defence of the Eastern Part of India, and currently they must be doing a lot of flights all along their area of responsibility including Sikkim and AP, for area familiarization and evolving tactics and training. Hence, this could be the possible explanation for large number of sightings of aircraft, identified or otherwise. These are new high performance jets with more capabilities that previous gen aircraft lacked, hence the confusion regarding the sightings. In addition a large number of UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehciles) have been inducted into the Army and Airforce and while previously they were only deployed on the Pakistan border, now they are being increasing deployed on the Chinese border too, due to increasing threat perception, this also could be attributed to the UFO sighting being reported lately. The UAVs are particularly small, have a some shaped forward structure and fly low and are highly maneuverable, hence confusing them as UFOs could be quite normal. Just wanted to provide some plausible explanation, before people seriously start panicking or spreading rumors of Extra terrestrial sightings. I am not discounting them, but the explanations I have sighted above could be the case in reality as well.
ReplyDeleteHope I made some sense,

Small correction above, in the sentence, "The UAVs are particularly small, have a some shaped forward structure and fly low and are highly maneuverable" I meant dome shaped.
