It was only a matter of time as to where and when innocent passengers will have to pay with their lives to wake up the Government, Minister Patel(usually busy with counting his cash from 'beedi' sales/diversion of aircraft from scheduled flights for daughter's needs/lying for his party boss Sharad etc.) and Air India from deep slumber.
The sorry and shabby state of affairs in the airlines has for long been in the 'accident waiting to happen' mode.
The airlines does not deserve to exist any longer now that the fuse has run out with this tragic "killing" for which the top management along with the Minister and other corrupt officials should be tried in our courts for murder. All the statistics on its operations are pathetic and frightening.
The series of incidents involving the National carrier during the recent months has become an national shame portraying India as incompetent bunch of idiots unable to operate air travel safely.
Just shut down this 'white elephant' or sell it at salvage value to a private operator if the iconic "Maharaja" Brand can be revived.
May the departed souls of innocents who died because of this criminal negligence rest in eternal peace.
I've moved... again!
