Notes:
- Unknown Statuses: For Sumit Sabharwal, Clive Kunder, Ajay, and the remaining 210 passengers and 7 crew, statuses are marked as “Unknown” due to lack of explicit confirmation in public reports. DNA testing is ongoing, as most bodies are unidentifiable.
- Unknown Nationalities: The nationalities of the seven remaining crew members are not specified by sources, likely Indian but marked as “Unknown” due to lack of confirmation.
Key Notes on the List
- Source Information: Air India and the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) released the full passenger list, including names, seat numbers, and nationalities, to assist in identification and family contact. However, only a subset of names (e.g., Vijay Rupani, Akeel Nanabawa’s family, Vishwash Kumar Ramesh) has been made public through media due to privacy protocols and the ongoing DNA identification process.
- Unknown Statuses: For individuals like Sumit Sabharwal, Clive Kunder, and Ajay, statuses are marked as “Unknown” because no explicit confirmation of their fate has been reported, despite presumptions of death due to the crash’s severity. The remaining 210 passengers and 7 crew members are listed as “Unknown” because their names and statuses are not publicly detailed, pending DNA verification at Ahmedabad Civil Hospital.
- Unknown Nationalities: The nationalities of the seven remaining crew members are marked as “Unknown” because sources do not specify their nationalities, though they are likely Indian, as is typical for Air India cabin crew.
- DNA Identification: The severe fire, fueled by 1.25 lakh liters of aviation fuel, rendered most bodies unidentifiable, necessitating DNA testing. This has delayed the release of individual statuses for the majority of the 242 onboard.
