It’s a known fact that low flying aircraft can sometimes be hazardous, but in Durgapur in West Burdwan district of West Bengal one plane in India took things to an extreme. There was much curiosity among the public after a huge airplane carried on a truck got stuck under a bridge.

A video of the incident is doing rounds on social in which it can be seen that a huge aircraft can be seen struggling to come out from under a bridge as cars and vehicles moved by. Locals said the abandoned airplane of India Post got stuck on Monday night on National Highway 2. India Post officials reached the spot on Tuesday and spoke to the local police personnel about a wayout.

The plane is said to be commissioned in 2007 and withdrawn last year. According to India Today, the stuck aircraft caused a lot of congestion on the busy road. But the congestion was cleared by police and other experts who managed to remove the airplane and truck from under the bridge.
