Air India Plane Crash: Sole Survivor Walks Away From Wreckage, Hospitalised

New Delhi: A devastating plane crash occurred in Ahmedabad, when an Air India flight bound for London with 244 people onboard crashed and burst into flames shortly after takeoff. The sole survivor, British national Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, who was seated in seat 11A, suffered impact injuries but managed to walk away from the wreckage.

The flight, AI171, was carrying 169 Indian nationals, 53 British nationals, one Canadian national, and seven Portuguese nationals. Unfortunately, more than 200 bodies have been recovered from the crash site. Among the deceased is former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani.

The plane, a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner, crashed into the medical college dorm of BJ Medical College Civil Hospital, resulting in at least five medical students being killed and 50 injured.

Ramesh, the sole survivor, described the incident, saying, “It all happened so quickly.” He is currently receiving treatment in a hospital for his injuries. The cause of the crash is yet to be determined, and an investigation is underway.

Ramesh was seated in 11A, a window seat located right behind an emergency exit on the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner bound for London Gatwick. According to Aerolopa, seat 11A is positioned in the first row of the Economy cabin, on the aircraft’s right side, two rows ahead of the wings — directly behind one of the plane’s emergency exit doors.

A video captured moments after the crash shows an injured Bucharvada walking towards an ambulance while surrounded by bystanders. Speaking in Gujarati, he described the terrifying moment: “The plane exploded.” Asked about the fate of the other passengers, he replied, “They are back there inside (at the crash site).”

Ahmedabad Police Commissioner G.S. Malik confirmed that Ramesh is the sole survivor of the disaster. “The police found one survivor in seat 11A. One survivor has been found in the hospital and is under treatment,” Malik told media persons. He added that the death toll is expected to rise as the flight crashed in a densely populated residential area.

The flight, carrying 230 passengers and 12 crew members, took off from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport at 1:39 pm IST. Radar data showed that the aircraft climbed only 625 feet before losing contact with air traffic control less than a minute later. The plane struck a hostel building of B.J. Medical College and Hospital shortly after. Rescue and recovery operations were carried out on war footing by various agencies. Armed forces also helped the local workers in the rescue operations at the crash site as authorities continued to assess the full extent of the tragedy.
