Devastating Air India Plane Crash

A horrific incident has unfolded in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, where Air India flight AI-171 crashed shortly after takeoff. The plane, carrying 242 passengers, including former Gujarat Chief Minister Vijay Rupani, came down near the airport. Tragically, it appears all passengers and crew may have perished. The flight, destined for London, experienced the crash at approximately 1:17 PM, just after taking off. The impact resulted in a devastating crash into a nearby cargo office, severely damaging the building.

Vijay Rupani, who was traveling to London to visit his family – including his wife and daughter – was on board. Emergency services, including 50 ambulances, are working tirelessly to extract survivors from the wreckage and transport the injured to nearby hospitals, where doctors have been mobilized to provide immediate medical care.
