In a freak accident, a defunct aircraft of India's national carrier Air India crashed near Begumpet Airport in the southern city of Hyderabad Sunday while being towed by a crane from hangar.
However, there have been no reports of any casualty, officials said.
"An old hull stationed at Old Begumpet airport in Hyderabad was being moved from Air India hanger for training purpose," Air India said in a statement.
"Hull was successfully taken out of airport but at one particular moment crane gave away and hull became unstable landing on the ground. Though the hull landed on the ground, it can be used for training purpose as planned initially."
A probe has been ordered into the incident, officials said.
