Disputes

This region is also known for Atlantique Incident, in which a Pakistan Navy's Naval Air Arm Breguet Atlantique patrol plane, carrying 16 people on board, was shot down by the Indian Air Force for Air Space violation, which was disputed by Pakistan and the wreckage was also found well inside the Indian boder. The episode took place in the Rann of Kutch on August 10, 1999, just a month after the Kargil War, creating a tense atmosphere between India and Pakistan.
