"Our radars picked up a UFO near Amritsar which was coming towards India from the International Border with Pakistan," said an IAF source. The SU-30MKI took off from the Halwara air base.

Far from being a visitor from another world however the object was eventually identified as a weather balloon that had drifted close to Indian air space.

Officials are now conducting a full investigation.
