Indian Doctor’s Family Dies in Air India Crash En Route to London
Dr Pratik Joshi, a medical professional who had been living in London for the past six years, was eagerly awaiting the reunion with his family. After years of hard work and planning, his wife Dr Komi Vyas, also a doctor, had finally resigned from her job in India, and the couple had arranged for their three young children to join him abroad to begin a new life together.
This morning, the family boarded Air India Flight 171 to London — a journey filled with hope, excitement, and dreams of a brighter future. Before takeoff, they captured a final selfie onboard and shared it with relatives, unaware that it would be their last photograph together.
Tragically, the plane crashed during its flight. None of the passengers, including Dr Joshi, his wife, and their children, survived.
In a matter of moments, a family’s lifelong dream turned to devastation. A future built with sacrifice and love was extinguished mid-air, leaving loved ones and the wider community in mourning.
Authorities have confirmed the incident and an investigation into the cause of the crash is underway. The tragedy serves as a haunting reminder of life’s unpredictability and the fragile thread by which our dreams hang.
