A man survived the Air India crash that killed at least 200 people, a police chief has told an Indian news agency.
Ahmedabad Police Commissioner GS Malik told ANI there was one survivor who was in seat 11A on the London-bound Boeing 787-8 flight.
The flight manifest shared by authorities said the passenger in that seat was British national Vishwash Kumar Ramesh.
Indian media said they had spoken to Mr Ramesh in hospital and reported him saying: “Thirty seconds after take-off, there was a loud noise and then the plane crashed. It all happened so quickly.”
Commissioner Malik told ANI the survivor “has been in the hospital and is under treatment”.
There were 169 Indian nationals, 53 Britons, seven Portuguese nationals and one Canadian on the Gatwick Airport-bound flight, Air India said.
The plane crashed into accommodation used by doctors less than a minute after take-off.
