Andhra CM was finally traced in the jungles of Nallamalla, dead in his helicopter crash.
And while we mourn the death of yet another seasoned leader, I want to ask the question... isn't this reason enough for governments to spend millions on upgrading the planes and the security of our politicians? We get upset at the cordons, or when Mayavati orders her new jet plane, but aren't they so necessary to safeguard the lives of our leaders, good or bad, who are such pillars of our democracy, irreplaceable in loss?

Interesting statistic from US safety agency NTSB: only 40% copters have terrain aware warning systems
and thats in US, no idea about India.
Yes, it seems his chopper turned left, off course, and went ahead and hit the hill :(
His main chopper was down for servicing, he said "chalta hai" and took this old one...
