Local villagers found the object floating in the air early this morning. Later, it got stuck on a palm tree. The villagers informed about the object to police as they became concerned over the presence of a machine-like component attached to the flying object.

The object appeared to have a battery attached to it along with several other electronic components. Locals suspected it to be a surveillance device.

The flying object might have been released for suspicious activities in Chandipur area, many villagers speculated and wanted the police to investigate.

On being informed, local police launched a probe into the origin of the flying object. Exact details of the flying-object and what it was doing over the village were yet to be known at the time of filing this report.

Notably, India successfully conducted another night test-fire of its indigenously developed nuclear-capable surface-to-surface ‘Prithvi-II’ ballistic missile Friday as a part of user-trial from Chandipur defence test facility off Odisha coast.
