Public Works and District In-charge Minister Satish Jarkiholi has purchased a modern helicopter from Germany, reportedly as part of his preparations for the upcoming elections.
The newly acquired chopper, manufactured by Augusta, is a double-engine model equipped with advanced safety features. It seats six passengers along with two pilots.
Jarkiholi inspected the helicopter at Jakkur Aerodrome in Bengaluru, later confirming on social media that it would soon be operational. He also shared photos and videos of the aircraft, accompanied by KPCC General Secretary Sunil Hanamannara and Ali Goravankolla.
