**Ahmedabad, India** – A tragic Air India flight bound for London crashed in the Meghani Nagar area of Ahmedabad shortly after takeoff from Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport on Thursday. Of the 242 people on board, including passengers and crew, only one survivor has been found.

Ahmedabad Police Commissioner G.S. Malik confirmed that a passenger was discovered alive in seat 11A of the wreckage. The survivor has been identified as Ramesh Vishwas Kumar and is currently receiving medical treatment.

The flight carried 169 Indian, 53 British, 7 Portuguese, and 1 Canadian passengers, along with 12 crew members including the pilots.

“It appears that most passengers did not survive this accident,” Commissioner Malik told the AP news agency, adding that the crash site, located in a residential area, also resulted in casualties among locals. “The situation is extremely challenging due to the debris and fire.”

According to initial reports, the Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner, an 11-year-old aircraft, lost signal at an altitude of 625 feet shortly after takeoff at approximately 1:38 PM. Within eight minutes, at 1:40 PM, the plane crashed. Data suggests the aircraft was descending rapidly at a rate of 400 feet per minute, leaving the pilots with little to no time to respond.

The crash has sent shockwaves throughout India. Authorities are continuing search and rescue operations at the crash site.
