Jammu: A Pakistani plane is believed to have entered into the Indian airspace today in R S Pura sector of Jammu but returned within minutes into its side.

The plane, which was flying at a low height, was spotted and reported by the Border Security Force (BSF), guarding the International Border.

In its report, the BSF said a six-winged, silver coloured flying object was seen from its border post that crossed into the Indian air space around 1:10 PM and returned within no time, official sources said.
