Vishwas Kumar Ramesh, the lone survivor of the Air India plane crash that occurred on June 12, has made a public appeal for a welfare package to assist in his daily needs. The 40-year-old British citizen is experiencing intense physical and mental distress, grappling with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) while mourning the loss of his brother, Ajay, in the tragedy.

Despite returning to his Leicester home a month ago, Ramesh finds it challenging to secure the medical care necessary for his recovery. He is largely confined to his room and emotionally overwhelmed by the incident that claimed the lives of 242 individuals on board.

Radd Seiger, Ramesh's spokesperson, called on Air India CEO Campbell Wilson to visit the family and address their pressing needs. An interim compensation has been provided, yet it falls short of meeting their financial and emotional requirements. Air India continues to express condolences and hints at future assistance as investigations into the crash proceed.
