So listen, what the police say
– it sounds a bit filmy but the truth is that in the Air India plane that crashed in Ahmedabad, there were 242 people on board, but only one man survived, his name is Vishwash Kumar Ramesh. Look at his luck, he was sitting next to the emergency exit in the flight to London. I don’t know how, but somehow he jumped out… and that’s it, he survived.
Aeroplane crash
A serious plane crash took place in Gujarat on Thursday. A Boeing 787 Dreamliner, which was 11 years old, crashed. There were a total of 242 passengers on board the plane and unfortunately, all of them died.
The plane crashed soon after taking off from Ahmedabad’s Sardar Patel International Airport–before even crossing the airport boundary. BSF and NDRF teams were immediately dispatched to the spot.
Highlights
- There is an atmosphere of grief in the country, people are shocked and sad. Amit Shah also clearly said that the whole country is in shock, and he expressed condolences to the families of the deceased.
- The plane that crashed had 1.25 lakh liters of fuel, which heated up very much at the time of the accident. According to Shah, it was impossible to save anyone in such a quantity.
- So far 204 bodies have been recovered from the Air India crash site. Police Commissioner GS Malik gave this information. The total number of dead has reached 241.
- Tata Group (which owns Air India) has announced that the family of each deceased will get Rs 1 crore. At least some help can be provided by taking money.
- At present 50 injured are admitted in Ahmedabad Civil Hospital, everyone’s condition is stable at present. DNA sampling is also going on in the hospital, so that the bodies can be identified. Close relatives of the deceased (parents or children) can give DNA samples.
- All in all, this incident is really terrible—the whole country has still not recovered from the shock.
Ramesh Vishwas Kumar
Ramesh Vishwas Kumar, 38, is luckily still with us—he is currently admitted in the hospital, undergoing treatment.
At the time of the crash, Ramesh was seated in seat 11A, near the window, above the emergency exit.
His brother, Ramesh Ajay Kumar, was also with him—in seat 11J.
As soon as the accident happened, Ramesh was quick to open the emergency door and quickly jumped out.
In the video, Ramesh is seen soaked in blood, but with his phone in his hand, and the best part—he is alive!
There is no update on his brother yet, which is a bit worrying.
The Ahmedabad Police Commissioner has also confirmed—the passenger from seat 11A has survived, and one more person has been found alive, but his identity has not been revealed yet.
It was quite scary, but Ramesh’s luck really turned out to be strong!
