V. Ravichandran says that- ‘I am from Mangalore traveling with my wife and when we heard this tragedy of Air-India crash in Mangalore we wanted to be in Mangalore to share the sorrows of the families of the victims. All efforts should be made that this kind of tragedy should never happen in Mangalore. Our prayers for all the departed souls and heart felf sympathy for the berieved family members.

Shiva, Mangalore / Dubai  said ‘Sad as this event is, it points to several glaring omissions by both the authorities and the public. If the airport’s hazardous conditions were published years ago why did the government not take any steps to reduce the dangers? Why did not Mangalore Today knowing what they knew pressurize the government or run a campaign to address this issue? Was is just another story to you guys which you forgot about after the next BIG NEWS? The fault lies with all of us who did nothing and perhaps will do nothing even 10 years from now. May the departed souls rest in peace.’

After hearing the news of Mangalore air crash, that claimed 158 persons life, Benedict Noronha, Udupi  said ‘I do appreciate your courage to give so much information in a heart rending situation.

May your tribe increase to help the destitute in such needy situations. May God Bless you for the very nice gesture when one is moved to be dumb. Indeed God Lives in you’ - T K Prabhu

In all these years of Mlore history, I think this disaster is the saddest moment for us. I pray to god to give strength to all the family members, the moms who have lost their children, the wives, the grandparents, the fathers, the children who must have been eagerly awaiting the return of their dads with gifts. I still remember how the Mlore airport gets crowded to welcome the family members coming from Dubai. Today instead of joy, happiness and love, they have been given loss, grief and death to cope with. May god give them all the courage and strength to cope with their loss said Karthik, Bangalore

It is one of the worst disasters Mangalore had ever witnessed. Most of the travelers must be the breadwinners of their families who were quite happy to board the plane that was touching their hometown. I can imagine the feelings and excitement when one is returning home, not to mention the excitement of family members who are foreseeing the arrival of their family member who went abroad to uplift their family. No one had expected this type of horrible accident. However, the fate was destined differently against the wishes of all of us.  Gireesh, Bajpe, Mangalore

Lakshman Hejamady said we are not here to blame the authorities nor the government on their role but simply need to admit that we are not at all equipped to face any small nor such major mishaps. Aren’t we comparatively very much behind when it comes to saving human life just compare it with many others nations? Pray that Central and State Government reflects on this reality which is a major drawback and gives a serious taught on such important issues in their agenda.
