The sole survivor of the Air India plane crash, which killed 241 people on board, has said he feels like the "luckiest man" alive, but is also suffering physically and mentally.

Viswashkumar Ramesh walked away from the wreckage of the London-bound flight in Ahmedabad.

He said it was a "miracle" he escaped but told how he has lost everything, as his younger brother Ajay died in the crash in June.

Since returning to his home in Leicester, Mr Ramesh has struggled with post-traumatic stress disorder, his advisers said, and has been unable to speak to his wife and four-year-old son.
