With mother as shield and skin, 8-month-old Air India crash victim survives
Eight-month-old Dhyaansh is the youngest survivor of the June 12 Air India crash. The infant's mother, Manisha Kachhadiya, shielded him as fire engulfed BJ Medical College's residential complex as the IC171 crashed into the building. As both battled burns, Manisha donated her skin to Dhyaansh for grafting. Now, mother and son have been discharged from the hospital.
