Ahmedabad Air India Crash: Bhagavad Gita Copy Found Untouched Amid Wreckage Leaves Netizens Moved
Ahmedabad, June 13, 2025:
In a powerful and emotional moment following the tragic Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad, a video has emerged showing an untouched copy of the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita found amidst the debris. The aircraft, a Boeing 787-8, crashed shortly after takeoff on June 12, killing 241 of the 242 people onboard. The only survivor was Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, seated in 11A, who managed to escape via an emergency exit.
The video, now viral on social media, shows a man carefully opening the sacred text, which was found unburned among the charred wreckage — a moment many have called symbolic and deeply spiritual.
The aircraft collided with a medical university building, causing several injuries and at least five confirmed deaths among students at BJ Medical College. Nearly 50 students remain injured. The Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) has begun its probe into the crash.
Globally, tributes and prayers continue. In London, nearly 100 devotees gathered at a temple to pray for the victims. British MP Shivani Raja confirmed that 53 UK citizens were aboard. The incident has reignited global conversations around aviation safety and the emotional toll on grieving families.
