The tragic aftermath of the recent Air India plane crash has deepened as Vishwashkumar Ramesh, the sole survivor of the ghastly incident, laid his brother Ajay to rest in Diu, western India. Ramesh, who was enduring serious injuries, was visibly affected as he shouldered part of his brother’s coffin, a heart-wrenching sight witnessed by many in the community, which lost 14 of its own in the crash.
Ajay was among the passengers aboard the ill-fated London-bound Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, which tragically went down moments after taking off from Ahmedabad last Thursday, resulting in the loss of 270 lives, including crew members and several on the ground. Despite his injuries, Ramesh’s commitment to honor his brother was evident as he stood by during the funeral procession, attended by grieving family members and locals braving the rain to offer their support.
New footage has shed light on Ramesh's miraculous escape from the burning wreckage, where he initially attempted to return to the downed aircraft in search of Ajay. First responders, including ambulance driver Satinder Singh Sandhu, noted Ramesh's blurry state of mind amidst the chaos, mentioning how he had to be guided to safety away from the wreckage. Sandhu had no prior knowledge of Ramesh's identity as he rendered aid, only discovering later through news coverage that he was the lone survivor.
While in the hospital, Ramesh recalled the moment he thought he would succumb to the flames but miraculously found a way out of the destruction. His survival is a story of both resilience and sorrow, leaving him grappling with the vivid memories of that ill-fated day. Investigators are now working to uncover the cause of the crash, analyzing the aircraft's black box to provide some clarity on the harrowing event.
