No official statement from Air India or DGCA yet, but local regulators and rescue agencies have launched probes to find crash cause.

Experts are looking at mechanical glitches, pilot issues, or runway obstacles as potential triggers.

Ahmedabad Airport has had serious crashes before, most notably Indian Airlines Flight 113 in 1988 with 133 fatalities near the same airport.

This crash is a glaring reminder: public safety can't be secondary to profits. The working-class passengers aboard deserve swift justice—proper compensation, transparent investigations, and bulletproof safety measures! Enough of privatization shortcuts, we need public accountability with strong regulations, better training for crews, and well‑funded airport emergency services. Safety is a right, not a luxury. 🌹✊
