In the wake of the devastating Air India Flight 171 crash, a story of selfless sacrifice has emerged amidst the grief and loss. Manisha, a mother who sustained severe burns in the tragic incident, has donated her skin to aid her eight-month-old son, Dhyaansh, in his recovery.

The Air India flight 171, bound for London Gatwick, crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad Airport on June 12, resulting in the death of 260 people. The crash, which involved a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, occurred when the plane lost power and crashed into a building, causing a massive fire. The impact and subsequent fire inflicted severe injuries on passengers, including Manisha and her infant son, Dhyaansh. Manisha suffered 25% burns while trying to save her son from their fire-engulfed home. Dhyaansh miraculously survived but sustained 36% burn injuries.

Following the crash, Dhyaansh was rushed to a hospital for immediate medical attention. Doctors determined that he required skin grafts to aid in his recovery from the extensive burns. In a remarkable act of love and sacrifice, Manisha, despite her own injuries and pain, offered to donate her skin to her son.

Manisha's selfless decision provided Dhyaansh with a crucial lifeline in his recovery. Skin grafts from his mother helped him heal from the severe burns he sustained in the crash. This act of maternal love has touched the hearts of many, serving as a beacon of hope amidst the tragedy.

The Air India crash has been a source of immense grief for the families of the victims. The process of identifying the remains of loved ones has been particularly challenging due to the severity of the fire and the extent of the damage. In one instance, a mother of a British victim experienced additional heartbreak when she received the wrong body to bury. It was discovered that the remains in her son's coffin were not his, causing further distress and prompting calls for investigation and accountability.

The aftermath of the Air India crash has also seen instances of remarkable resilience and community support. In the face of unimaginable loss, families have come together to support one another, sharing their grief and offering comfort. Volunteers and organizations have stepped up to provide assistance to the affected families, offering practical help, emotional support, and resources.

The Air India crash serves as a stark reminder of the fragility of life and the importance of safety in air travel. Investigations are underway to determine the cause of the crash and to prevent similar incidents from happening in the future. Aviation authorities are committed to ensuring that air travel remains as safe as possible for passengers.
