On October 22, 2025, during President Droupadi Murmu's official visit to Kerala, her helicopter experienced a mishap upon landing at the newly constructed helipad at Pramadam Stadium in Pathanamthitta. The helipad, completed just hours before the landing, had not fully set, causing the tarmac to sink under the helicopter's weight. Emergency personnel swiftly responded, manually moving the aircraft to a safe area. Despite the scare, no injuries occurred, and the President proceeded with her scheduled visit to the Sabarimala temple. The incident has raised concerns about the readiness of infrastructure for high-profile events.
