Orphan laments over mother's remains
Their son, Miten Patel, has been left to struggle with the aftermath of the disaster and the loss of his parents.
In a video shared on YouTube by CNBC TV, Miten recounted the traumatic experience his family endured.
He lamented over the process of identification and repatriation of remains which has been quite a challenging one.
Miten Patel said he encountered a worrisome situation with processing of his mother's remains after the Air India crash.
Specifically, the remains attributed to his mother were not entirely hers, and additional remains were discovered, which complicated the process.
This situation necessitated further action to separate the remains in accordance with Hindu customs, which require proper handling and cremation procedures.
Despite the trauma, Miten acknowledged the support his family received from loved ones and friends.

In his words:
"We've had to deal with a lot of things. Unfortunately, my parents despite being the first ones repatriated to the UK, my dad was the first to be identified in the UK, confirmed by the Coroner, Fiona Wilcox. But yes, we've had to deal with another unfortunate process of my mother's remains not being completely hers or further remains found, which has obviously delayed that process.
"And, being Hindu, we need to make sure that they are separated so we can give her the cremation that we need to do. Yes, it's been very traumatic. You know, everybody, we've got support from loved ones, family, and friends who have come here. Even when I went to India to find my parents we're grateful to them. But yeah, it's been very difficult, very difficult. Never in a million years would we think that we'd be going through this."

"I'm so very sorry. My deepest condolences to him. Such a beautiful couple his beloved parents. And he has their ring. That choked me up. RIP. My father's name was also Ashok. I lost him in 2022 and my mother in 2024. Our parents' love and caring will always surround us."
Babadev03 said:
"How lovely that your father's special ring was found and that you are wearing it! I am sure that both your parents will be very happy about this. Oh, the plane killed their bodies but it didn't kill their souls! The real part of us, our personality, is our soul and nothing can kill a soul. We are not the body or the mind, our true self is our soul."

In his words:
"I received a call from Air India on the 12th. They said they want 250 to 300 coffins. I said I don't have that much capacity as I am alone. But I can give you at least 100. I will give it compulsorily...I will give it in two days... I just did this whole process while standing. I had 40 to 50 coffins, and it took some hard work. I worked for 20 hours a day..."
