BENGALURU: Group Captain Varun Singh, who was the sole survivor of the Mi17V5 helicopter crash in which Chief of Defence Staff General Bipin Rawat and 12 others were killed on December 8 near Coonoor in Tamil Nadu, succumbed to his injuries on Wednesday at Command Hospital in Bengaluru exactly a week later.
Singh had reportedly suffered 90 percent burn injuries and was on life support ever since.

I was away but read horrible comments some posters made about Indian casualties in this accident. I find it dispicable and disgusting to make fun of someone’s death.

These men had families and they served their country to what they saw as the best way. Their affairs are now with the almighty and we must respect the fact that they are no more among us.

Anyone mocking their death must be sick and twisted in their head .

RIP

RIP
He was badly wounded in the crash; according to reports he was in a state of comma and never regain consciousness.
Further badly burned, if a person suffers 30% or more burns that are life-threatening. The departed soul has more than that and was also seriously injured.

90% burn injuries I believe is life threatening...

I think that he is the man, whose video, while being carried in a cloth sheet, from crash site, was shared on social media. In that video, he seemed to be conscious. I thought, he will survive. RIP.
