HAL Chief Reaffirms Tejas Safety After Dubai Crash

The Tejas light combat aircraft, made by Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL), crashed during a show in Dubai.

The pilot, Wing Commander Namansh Syal, sadly died.

The HAL chairman, DK Sunil, said the Tejas is very safe and the crash was just a bad accident.

He also mentioned that India is proud to have made this advanced aircraft and that they will keep improving it.

This is the second time a Tejas has crashed, but the first time a pilot didn't survive.

The first crash was near Jaisalmer last year, and the pilot was able to eject safely.

HAL is also working on selling the Tejas to other countries.
