Indian Air Force attempted landing or Highway which failed badly, In a coverup, IAF officer said the landings are always simulated and the jets don't actually touch the road as the wheels would be damaged. One person was also injured while watching test landings.

Are the roads where they were trying to land unpaved ?

If they are not then the aircraft can not be used to land on normal runways...What a disgrace for the French as the aircraft was a M2K.
 
Epic Fail by Zarvan.
It was just a car accident which has nothing to do with landing event:
Expressway car crash
Lucknow: Senior IAS officer and Uttar Pradesh Principal Secretary (Information) Navneet Sahgal, and four others, were today injured in a car accident at Unnao on the Agra-Lucknow Expressway, days ahead of its inauguration.
The mishap occurred when Sahgal was returning after an air show by the Indian Air Force in Bangarmau, police said.
They said Sahgal’s official car collided with a private car between Atiya and Inayatpur villages, under Auras police station area.
The officer has suffered head injuries and has been rushed to the Trauma Centre at KGMU here, along with his driver, gunner, and two others who were in the private car, they said.
A 1988-batch IAS officer, Sahgal is also Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Uttar Pradesh Expressways Industrial Development Authority (UPEIDA).
Hours before the accident, Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav had warned against driving at high speed on the state-of-the-art road.
“I request you to drive on the expressway with caution and not exceed a speed limit of 100 kmph,” he had said after a Cabinet meeting earlier in the day.

NEW DELHI: An Indian Air Force (IAF) jet practised landing on a highway in Uttar Pradesh today as part of a plan for emergencies when military air fields are not available.

Visuals from the highway between Lucknow and Agra showed scores of bystanders taking mobile phone videos as a jet flashed past them, barely skimming the road before taking off again.

An accident that took place after the test, in which a bureaucrat was injured, was not linked to the highway landing at all, said officers.


Last year, a Mirage 2000 fighter jet test-landed on the Yamuna Expressway near Delhi. The fighter plane flew down from Gwalior in Madhya Pradesh and maneuvered an almost-landing.


Officers say the landings are always simulated and the jets don't actually touch the road as the wheels would be damaged.

Several highways across India have been identified for IAF landings. Two have been tested so far, including the Lucknow-Agra highway today.

The drills involve much coordination between the IAF and government agencies, a makeshift Air Traffic Control and fire engines, rescue vehicles and bird-watchers on stand-by.

Defence experts say landing fighters on roads is common across the world and comes into play during wartime when airbases are first targets of bombs or missiles. In India, very few roads are available for such landings because of traffic, people and even animals on the highway.
