Autoimmune diseases come with a long trail of expenses that don’t end at the hospital. They follow you all the way home. I’ve written about this in my column for Express Healthcare. Do give it a read.

As a PR person gathering coverage in newspapers is part of my daily job but nothing has ever given me the same amount of happiness as my sister's work on MS.

In 2019, my talented young colleague @Isha_Gupta409, a rising star in TV news, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), a neuro-degenerative autoimmune disease.

An incredible fighter, she is working to illuminate a condition we should all know about.

India’s biggest export earnings can come from Tourism which is totally free from Trumps tariffs.
India, with its natural beauty, history, heritage, culture, and diversity, sees a mere 1.5% share in international tourist arrivals. There has been no concerted branding or marketing campaign for Indian tourism in the past decade.
We need the biggest global branding and marketing campaign to unleash Incredible India’s immense potential. Otherwise, with the 1800 planes Indian airlines are buying, we will just be ferrying Indians flying abroad for holidays.
We must attract global tourists. They will more than make up for 50% tariff levied by Trump on goods.

An Air India Captain who flew in the aftermath of the crash steeling himself mentally penned this down for himself & his crew. With his consent, I am sharing this for all to read. Also gives you a glimpse into the mental fortitude needed by our pilots and crew at this time. They need all our support at this hour of grief

AI171: A Tragedy That Must Redefine Our Safety Culture

June 12, 2025
Flight AI171, operated by a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad, leading to the loss of over 260 lives. Among them were passengers, cabin crew, and the flight’s captain Capt. Sumeet Sabharwal. The impact of this event has shaken the aviation community to its core.

This is not just a technical event , it is a defining moment for every cockpit and every cabin. For those of us who wear the wings, this tragedy strikes at the heart of what it means to be a professional: to lead under pressure, to act with discipline, and to speak up when it matters most.

What Happens After the Crash Defines Us

Accidents in aviation are rarely the result of one mistake. They are complex, multi-layered, and merciless. But what separates great organizations and great crews is how they respond afterward with accountability, learning, and leadership at every level.

The investigation will run its course. But long before official findings emerge, we in the safety chain pilots, cabin crew, engineers, dispatchers, ATC—must begin our own reflection.
•Are our SOPs being followed with intent, not just compliance?
•Are fatigue, workload, and operational risks being openly addressed?
•Are we creating a culture where safety concerns can be raised without fear?

These are not rhetorical questions. They are action points for every safety officer, line trainer, fleet manager, and crew member.

Captain Sabharwal’s Legacy: Leadership in the Final Seconds

Capt. Sabharwal reportedly tried to steer the aircraft away from populated areas, attempting to minimize ground casualties even in the face of imminent disaster. His final moments reflect the highest standards of command responsibility.

His actions remind us: professionalism is not just technical proficiency I t’s moral clarity under pressure.

From Grief to Renewal: The Safety Mission Ahead

This is a time for discipline and solidarity. Not for speculation, blame, or silence.

We must reaffirm our core values:
•Crew Resource Management (CRM) is not just a training module ……it’s a daily operational mindset.
•Threat and Error Management (TEM) is not a formality ….it’s our active defense line.
•Safety Reporting is not optional …,it’s a shared responsibility.

Air India, under the Tata Group, carries not just an operational load—but a legacy. That legacy must now be strengthened by a safety culture that values honesty, humility, and action.

Let AI171 not become just another file number in an investigation archive. Let it mark a turning point a moment where we raise the bar on how we brief, train, fly, and lead.

We owe it to the passengers.
We owe it to the crew we lost.
We owe it to each other.

Safety isn’t a department. It’s a mindset.
And leadership isn’t a title. It’s how we show up especially after the crash.

A Final Salute to Captain Sabharwal

With profound grief and heavy hearts, we bid farewell to Captain Sabharwal - an exceptional aviator, a dedicated professional, and a beloved member of the Air India family.

Captain Sabharwal’s unwavering commitment to the skies and his quiet strength on the ground earned him deep respect across the aviation fraternity.

At his funeral today, our COO, Tata Group's HR Head and Communications Head joined his family, friends, and colleagues to pay their respects, share in their pain and grief, and to offer moral support on behalf of the entire Air India and Tata Group family.

We stand in solidarity with his loved ones during this time of immense loss. His memory will continue to inspire us, and his legacy will forever be etched in the heart of Air India.

RIP Captain. You will be missed.

So easy to point fingers at a pilot who is not alive to defend himself. No matter that he had under 30 seconds to save the plane. Alacrity with which some TV channels have done this is shameful & sad - lapping up a a man’s performative theatre. This is real life, not Tik Tok

Just completed my second @airindia flight of the day. This is a Tweet to thank the crew who have been working with a smile during what is clearly very difficult times for them. I thanked and had a chat with the crew on both the flights. The evening flight crew thanked me back for continuing to trust them! Here is a picture with them.

And now read the touching letter written by their Chairman to his team. All those who are jumping and blaming the Tatas... Read the 2nd and 3rd paragraphs. Read. Again.

PS: I have already been called an agent of the Tatas and doing PR for them. So, if you want to say that... Save the trouble of a reply!!

Due to the emerging situation in Iran, the subsequent closure of its airspace and in view of the safety of our passengers, the following Air India flights are either being diverted or returning to their origin... Refunds on cancellation or complimentary rescheduling is also being offered to guests who opt for it. Alternative arrangements are being made to fly passengers to their destinations: Air India
