In May last year, a mortar shell had exploded during exercises at a firing range near Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang, killing one soldier and injuring six others. A technical defect had caused the mortar shell to fall short of this expected range.

In April last year, an army soldier was killed and another injured in a TNT mine blast at a firing range in Madhya Pradesh's Sagar district.
