Mr. N. Chandrasekaran
Chairman, Air India

Subject: When Silence Speaks Louder Than Leadership

Dear Mr. Chandrasekaran,

They say leadership is about showing up — not just in boardrooms, but in moments that truly matter.

Today on June 17th when Capt. Sumit Sabherwal — the Commander of Air India flight AI 171 — was laid to rest, you were just a few kilometres away in Mumbai. Yet, neither you nor a single board member of Tata Sons or Air India found the time, or perhaps the inclination, to attend his funeral. Not one.

Capt. Sabherwal wasn’t just a name on a payroll or a line item in the cost column of a ₹3000 crore aircraft. He was a human being. A son, a colleague, a commander entrusted with hundreds of lives each flight. But more importantly, he was one of yours — part of the Tata family, or so we’re often told in town halls and mission statements.

And yet, as his 88-year-old ailing father stood by his son’s pyre — alone, broken, and betrayed — the Tata Group, that venerable institution that once stood for grace and humanity, could not even spare a board representative. No shoulder to lean on. No condolences delivered in person. One wonders: is this the “New India” the Tata Group wants to lead?

You see, leadership is not just about IPOs and synergies. It’s also about presence — especially in the dark moments. Ashwani Lohani, a former Air India Chairman, understood this. When a relatively junior Flight Despatcher passed away in Mumbai years ago, Lohani didn’t send a card or a floral arrangement. He showed up — and went further, offering the grieving wife a job. No cameras. No LinkedIn posts. Just humanity.

Now imagine for a moment — would J.R.D. Tata have stayed away? Would Ratan Tata, who personally visited animal shelters and grieving ex-employees, have sent regrets via social media posts and emails?

No, they would’ve been there. Because they understood that airplanes may cost thousands of crores, but the men and women who fly them are priceless.

It’s not about protocol, sir. It’s about people. And when the Chairman of Tata Sons cannot find time to attend the funeral of a Captain who dedicated his life to serving the skies under the Tata banner, what message does that send to the rest of the crew?

The message is loud and clear: You’re just a name in a roster. A code in the system. An employee number.Replaceable.

Today, the employees of Air India feel abandoned. Not by fate, not by circumstance, but by you. And in your absence, we saw everything.

Warm regards (though with little warmth left),

@nabilajamal_ @akku92 This is ridiculous, there’s no connection between serious aircraft accidents and the media and AC not working in planes; look at his profile he’s made a hobby out of posting stuff like this about every company for a damned refund.

[Advit @advitwake]

He did it. The son of a bitch did it.

[Oliver Alexander @OAlexanderDK]

Absolutely fucking insane to release the passenger list this early before there is any realistic chance that the families are informed.

They even included the passport numbers.

This might be the worst breach of journalistic ethics I have ever seen.
