Kasaragod District Collector K Inbasekar on Friday suspended a Revenue Department official for allegedly making derogatory remarks against Renjitha Gopakumaran Nair, the Kerala nurse who died in the Ahmedabad plane crash on Thursday.

The claim can be initiated by "nominees/ legal heirs of policyholders by simply providing proof of death issued by the local government, police or hospitals."

Since the incident, the hospital has been swarmed by relatives and friends of the victims, waiting to identify or collect their bodies.

As the whole country reacts to the Ahmedabad plane crash, this is a guide to being a responsible digital citizen: what to share, what to hold back, and how to truly support those grieving.

Thiruvananthapuram: A junior superintendent with the revenue department in Kerala has been suspended for making misogynistic and casteist remarks against a Malayali nurse who tragically died in the Air India plane crash in Ahmedabad on Thursday.

The 'Kuberaa' trailer launch event, featuring Dhanush and Nagarjuna Akkineni, was canceled out of respect for the Ahmedabad tragedy victims. While the grand event was postponed, the trailer will be released online.

Air India has confirmed that 241 out of the 242 people who were onboard the Air India flight that crashed have been confirmed dead. There is only one survivor of the crash and he is being treated at the hospital.

What was meant to be the beginning of a new life turned into an unimaginable tragedy for 21-year-old Khushboo Rajpurohit, whose dreams were crushed when the Air India Boeing 787 Dreamliner she was flying on crashed just moments after taking off from Ahmedabad.
