Delhi High Court Rejects PIL Seeking Changes to Ahmedabad Air India Crash Report

The Delhi High Court dismissed a PIL seeking to amend the Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau's preliminary report on the Air India Flight 171 crash in Ahmedabad last June. The petitioner requested inclusion of detailed timelines for engine flame-out and fuel switch transitions, suggesting a possible engine surge cause. The court ruled that modifying expert investigation reports is beyond its scope and advised using the Right to Information Act for such data. The AAIB confirmed the investigation is ongoing with no final conclusions yet.
