Families Demand Clarity After Air India Flight AI171 Tragedy

Grieving families express frustrations over preliminary crash report, seeking clarity on avoidable factors and causes.


The families of victims from the Air India flight AI171 crash are demanding answers after a preliminary report offered little insight into the tragedy, which claimed 241 lives. Emotional and heartbroken, relatives seek to understand the circumstances surrounding the disaster in hopes of finding peace.


The loss endured by the families of Air India flight AI171, which tragically crashed shortly after takeoff on June 12, continues to weigh heavily as they react to a preliminary report released this past weekend. Among those affected is Imtiyaz Ali, whose brother, sister-in-law, and their two children were among the deceased. His disappointment was palpable as he noted the report felt more like a marketing brochure than a comprehensive investigation, stating, "Other than the pilots' final conversation, there's nothing in it that really points to what caused the crash."

The unfortunate incident, which led to the death of 241 individuals aboard and 19 people on the ground, has left many families devastated. The report disclosed that the airplane's engine fuel supply was abruptly cut off just seconds after departure, but the reasons behind this remain ambiguous. Investigators recovered recordings from the cockpit indicating a conversation between the pilots regarding the unexpected fuel cut-off, but left many questions lingering.

Shweta Parihar, whose husband was also a victim, expressed her heartache, claiming that no amount of investigative findings would ever bring back her loved ones. "What will they do in the investigation, tell us how it happened?" she questioned, her grief evident. "Everything is done, everything is finished." She further voiced concern for her son, Vihaan, who now harbors fears about flying with Air India again.

Badasab Syed, who lost his brother and his family in the crash, echoed feelings of frustration with the preliminary report’s vagueness. "We don’t know, what does that mean? Was this avoidable?" he asked, reflecting on the ambiguity of the findings. The family's matriarch, Bibi Sab, is particularly affected by the tragic loss of her son and grandchildren, with her wellbeing declining as she copes with the devastation.

As the families await further updates and a comprehensive final report expected to be published in a year, their quest for closure and understanding continues to grow, highlighting both their grief and the urgent need for accountability.
