"Light on One Side, Death on the Other: Survivor Describes Escape From Air India Crash"
TDT | Manama Amid the chaos and heartbreak at Civil Hospital in Asarwa, one survivor's voice breaks through with a recollection of the deadly Air India crash that has shaken the nation. Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, a 40-year-old British national visiting India to see his family, lay on a hospital bed with visible injuries to his chest, eyes, and feet. He was supposed to be on his way back to the UK with his elder brother, Ajay Kumar Ramesh (45), when tragedy struck just moments after takeoff. 'Within a minute after the takeoff, I felt the plane wasn't moving right. It started going down,' Vishwash said, his voice trembling. He described the harrowing moments when the aircraft failed to gain altitude. 'After the flight got stuck, I looked to my left and saw an open space with some light. On my right, there was a building wall. I saw people dying in front of my eyes.' The crash, which happened within seconds of takeoff, left a trail of devastation. Many families are still waiting desperately for news of their loved ones at the hospital. Vishwash's account is a painful reminder of the human cost behind every aviation tragedy. While he miraculously survived, the fate of his brother remains uncertain at the time of reporting. As investigations begin into what led to the crash, survivors like Vishwash are holding on to hope, and memories of the terrifying seconds that changed their lives forever.
