Pilots' unions have raised objections after a Wall Street Journal report suggested the Air India captain played a key role in June’s Boeing 787 crash in the US by allegedly cutting fuel flow to the engines, citing cockpit recordings. The Indian government has urged the public not to rush to conclusions, stating that investigations are ongoing. "Final reports must be awaited before assigning blame," a senior official said. The incident forced a safety pause on Air India’s international flights. Pilot groups say speculative reports risk damaging reputations without full facts being established. (PC: India Today)
