Port Blair, July 24: The search operation for missing AN32 has become one of the biggest search operations ever in Indian history for any missing aircraft but sadly the massive deployment has failed to find any clue in this case till now.
As per a message from Ministry of Defence at present 12 ships of Indian Navy, four ships of Indian Coast Guard and 17 aircrafts of Indian Navy, Indian Coast Guard and Indian Air Force are looking for the missing aircraft in Bay of Bengal.
As per highly placed sources the weather has improved marginally in the search area but rough sea conditions are making things too challenging for the ships.
Meanwhile all out efforts are being made from the side of Andaman and Nicobar Command too in this regard. Five ships and two aircrafts of Andaman and Nicobar Command are searching for any clue in Bay of Bengal, in its own territory, in additional to the actual search operation at the main search site.
Meanwhile family members of Andaman boy Raghubir Verma, who was coming home by the AN-32 Aircraft are also getting restless because of this delay. Talking to media persons the family members demanded some kind of helpline number where they can call and get the latest update about the search operation.
In Andaman and Nicobar Islands photographs of Ranghubir Verma is shared in all social media groups and thousands and thousands of prayers are being posted everyday for the safe return of all 29 people onboard AN32.
