TS Singh Deo captured during skydiving
Chhattisgarh health minister TS Singh Deo is being celebrated on the internet, thanks to one of his recent social media uploads. In it, the 70-year-old Congress leader is seen skydiving in Australia, much to the delight and surprise of his social media followers. Mr Deo – who is also the titular Maharaja of Surguja – is seen smiling during the dive while being accompanied by an experienced instructor.
The clip shared by the minister features him dressed in the specialised gear suited for the dive. Right before the dive, the clip shows an unfazed Mr Deo who is harnessed to his instructor and the parachute. We also see glimpses of the minister skydiving, with Mr Deo often turning to smile and show the thumbs-up sign to the cameras. After safely landing, Mr Deo is seen thanking the instructor and adding that he was already ready for an encore.
Sharing the clip, Mr Deo wrote, “There were no bounds to the sky’s reach. Never! I had the incredible opportunity to go skydiving in Australia, and it was truly an extraordinary adventure. It was an exhilarating and immensely enjoyable experience.”
