Instead of Amit Shah saying, "This is an accident, and no one can stop accidents" Here is what the government should be doing for the 250+ lives lost and the families left behind: 1. Publicly release black box data (CVR and FDR) ▪️The black box holds critical flight data including flap positions, engine thrust, and cockpit voice recordings ▪️In the 737 MAX crashes, Ethiopia and Indonesia released black box data quickly and transparently India owes the same honesty to its people 2. Invite global aviation bodies (NTSB, EASA) ▪️Europe’s EASA refused to rely solely on the FAA and conducted its own independent review of Boeing aircraft after the MAX disasters ▪️India must involve neutral international experts to ensure a thorough and unbiased investigation 3. Audit Air India’s fleet, crew training, and safety procedures ▪️After the MAX crashes, Canada reviewed pilot training, checklists, and airline-level oversight. ▪️If takeoff configurations, maintenance gaps, or procedural lapses played a role, they must be identified and addressed 4. Demand full disclosure from Boeing ▪️The US Congress compelled Boeing to release internal documents, warnings, and emails after the 737 MAX crashes ▪️India must do the same. If there were known risks involving the 787’s flaps, landing gear, or sensors, the public has a right to know 5. Ground similar aircraft if serious risks are found ▪️China grounded the entire 737 MAX fleet within 24 hours of the second crash, choosing safety over corporate relationships ▪️India must be ready to take similar action if investigators find systemic risks 6. Communicate clearly and consistently with families and the public Provide regular, factual updates. Speak directly to those who are grieving This is not just about one crash It is about a system that allowed over 250 people to fall from the sky with no warning and no chance We cannot bring them back. But the least we can do is give families clarity, justice, and accountability This is the bare minimum
