Overview
- Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, 39, describes constant flashbacks, sleeplessness and ongoing pain, and advisers say he has received no medical treatment since returning to the UK.
- He accepted an interim payment of about £21,500, but advisers say it is insufficient and are seeking practical support for childcare, food, and medical and psychiatric care.
- Advisers say repeated requests to meet CEO Campbell Wilson were ignored or declined, while Air India and Tata Group say senior leaders have offered to meet and that care remains a priority.
- Ramesh’s family fishing business in India has collapsed since the crash, leaving relatives in Leicester without income, with a community leader calling the situation an “existential threat.”
- A preliminary AAIB report found both fuel-control switches moved to the “cut-off” position seconds after takeoff; no final cause has been determined and families want greater investigative transparency.
