Grieving dad says no help received yet
The video, posted by NTT on YouTube, showed the father expressing his pain and frustration at the lack of support from the government and Air India.
According to him, an Air India personnel once came to his house after the crash and he was given a form to fill.
He lamented that despite his family's expectations, they had not received any assistance or help from the authorities.
In his words:
"I have learned a lot, but my condition is not good. All the government representatives came and went, but no one has come forward to help me yet. I haven't received any help, no assistance has been provided yet.
"The Air India person came and went, and there were some forms. We had expectations from them, we had expectations from the government, from the central government, from the Maharashtra government, and from Air India. But we haven't received anything, no help, nothing yet.
"No representative of theirs has come to talk about such things. The ones who came earlier, they all came and went, and no one from the central government came, no one at all. I am telling you the story."

Reeorchids added:
"Subscribing to this channel just for this incredibly sincere, sensitive and thoughtful journalist. Hope other journalists learn from him. His restraint, his integrity and calmness while asking the bereaved family members questions is another level journalism. He is absolutely brilliant."
Patmax14 said:
"I have immense respect for this journalist. Not only did he comfort the grieving mother in her time of sorrow, but he also helped uplift her spirit in his own unique way by empowering her with strength and motivation to encourage her children's dreams instead of overshadowing them. While some mothers mourn their children who are no longer with them, there are others whose children choose not to communicate with them anymore. C'est la vie. God bless all."

"That's what you call a genuine Journalism. The 'wait for the next word' after those tears and the console, showed 'the respect' the Genuine Journalist is giving to the parents of the victim. Keep it up Tamal."
