Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu said on Sunday (July 20, 2025) that the government should wait for the final report before reaching any conclusion in the aircraft accident in Ahmedabad.

Kinjarapu said, ‘I have full faith in the Bureau of Accident Investigation (AAIB) and their work. He has done a commendable job of decoding the entire black box and providing data in India itself. Along with this, Kinjarapu targeted the Western media and said that there may be some wrong intention in the kind of articles that such media is publishing.

Black box is sent abroad for data

He further said that whenever the black box was found to be damaged in plane accidents, it was always sent abroad to get the data, but this is the first time that AAIB decoded everything here. This is a big success for the country of India.

Minister Kinjarapu said that it would be wrong to draw any conclusions before the investigation and there should be no comment on it. Whatever steps have to be taken in terms of security, we are fully prepared for it.

What was revealed in the first report?

A total of 260 people died in the Air India aircraft accident on 12 June 2025 and AAIB is investigating it. Aircraft number AI-171 going from Ahmedabad to London Gatwick collided with a building immediately after flying. Now only after receiving the final report of AAIB, it will be revealed how this big accident happened with the aircraft.

According to the preliminary inquiry report, a few seconds before the crash, the fuel control switches of both engines of the aircraft were closed. Preliminary investigation reports of 15 pages of the accident revealed that the fuel control switches of both engines were cut off from ‘run’ within a second, due to which the aircraft suddenly started coming down.
