According to a 48-year-old man named Nilesh Waghela, Air India called him on day flight 171 to arrange for coffins for each and every victim.

According to an interview with the news outlet The Quint, Nilesh supplied more than 100 coffins that were used to transport the remains of victims.

Family man Nilesh claimed that because he manages his coffin business alone, he was unable to fulfill Air India’s request for him to create roughly 300 coffins.

In the end, he provided them with more than 100 coffins in two days, noting that he had roughly 50 coffins before the request. He said to The Quint:

“I received a call from Air India on the 12th. They said they want 250 to 300 coffins. I said I don’t have that much capacity as I am alone. But I can give you at least 100. I will give it compulsorily…I will give it in two days…

“I just did this whole process while standing. I had 40 to 50 coffins, and it took some hard work. I worked for 20 hours a day.”

Speaking further, he told  the interviewer: “But it was hard work, and I got it done. I do it (make coffins) alone and don’t even take help from my brother. I don’t take help from anyone, I do it alone.

“It happened by the grace of God. I have been doing this for the last 15 years. I am doing it so that I can pay my son’s fees and get some help at home, and I am also driving an auto.”

The auto driver revealed his monthly income as well.

“I am not educated. I do whatever work comes my way. I take whatever they give me. It is the one in front. My household expenses are taken care of. I make 20,000 to 25,000 Indian Rupees (N357,623 to N457,482) per month. My expenses are met.”
