In a proud moment for India, the Prachand Light Combat Helicopter has started participating in joint war games.

The indigenous choppers are being flown extensively in the desert sector and performing very well.

The combat helicopter comes with a 70 mm rocket pod as well as a 20 mm gun canon.

The Prachand, along with the Dhruv Advance Light Helicopter, is a huge boost to the IAF's combat prowess.

A mahant at the village temple, he has been buying lottery tickets for 35-40 years.

This time, the Lohri bumper lottery turned out to be a bonanza for him.

What does he plan to do with all that money? Let him tell you that :)
