Black Box Key In Probe, All Theories To Be Investigated To Find Cause: Aviation Ministry On Ahmedabad Plane Crash

The Aviation Ministry has stated that the recovery of the black box is pivotal in investigating the cause of the Ahmedabad plane crash. All possible theories, including pilot error and mechanical failure, will be explored. The Government of India and the Aviation Ministry have emphasized their commitment to passenger safety and are taking measures to prevent future incidents. The flight, carrying 160 passengers from Mumbai to Ahmedabad, overshot the runway on Sunday night. Rescue operations have been completed, and the focus has shifted to the investigation. While the black box has been recovered, the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) is still being searched for. There are conflicting reports about whether the fire started before or after the plane landed. Witnesses have differing accounts, with some claiming the fire broke out before the plane halted, while others say it started after. Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu highlighted that passenger safety is the top priority. The Government is upgrading airport infrastructure, enhancing pilot training, and implementing stricter safety protocols. Additionally, plans are underway to integrate Artificial Intelligence in the aviation sector to monitor safety parameters and predict risks in advance. The Minister assured transparency in the investigation and promised to make the findings public once the probe is completed. Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee President DK Shivakumar has demanded a thorough investigation and adequate compensation for the affected families.
