The Consulate General of India in Vancouver has confirmed the deaths of two Indian students, Manoj Sivakumar and Srisaran Thirugnanasambantham, following a plane crash in Canada. The victims were undergoing flight training when their Cessna 172, operated by Harv's Air, went missing during a night flight from Regina to Manitoba. Search and rescue teams discovered the wreckage near Kisbey, Saskatchewan, confirming that both occupants had perished. The Indian consulate has offered its condolences and pledged to assist the families with the repatriation of the remains. While the specific details of the incident are still under investigation by Canadian authorities, reports indicate the flight was intended to help the students accrue hours for their commercial pilot licenses. This tragedy follows other recent safety incidents involving the same flight school, prompting ongoing scrutiny of their operations.
