The 2010 plane accident at Mangaluru airport was an unforgettable human tragedy which I had closely seen in my life. The flight, which landed from Dubai at 6.30am on May 22, overshot the runway and scrambled down the mountain range. The plane broke in to two pieces. As many as 158 people were burnt alive. Eight people managed to get out of the plane.

As soon as I got the news, I rushed to the spot and joined hands with rescue teams. I lent my shoulders to carry the dead bodies. I was very disturbed to mourning of relatives and friends of the deceased. The incident also reminded me of the uncertainty of life. It also reinforced my belief that nothing can go against Destiny.
