Search focus for Khandu shifts to Bhutan

Guwahati: After satellite images failed to lead rescuers to the missing chopper of Arunachal Pradesh chief minister Dorjee Khandu four days after he went missing, the search mission shifted focus to Bhutan. "Torrential rains and steep inclines slowed down the pace of the well-trained rescuers who began trekk
ing early morning, but they got nothing when they reached the two spots well past noon," said Union minister V Narayanasamy in state capital Itanagar.
The 'disappointment' made other search parties shift focus to five other spots - four in West Kameng district of Arunachal Pradesh, and the fifth in the Paktujiji area in the adjoining Trashi Yangtse district of Bhutan.
