Squadron Leader Ninad Mandavgane.

Among the seven killed in a Mi-17 crash in Jammu & Kashmir’s Budgam last week, the wife of a deceased Indian Air Force pilot urged social-media “warriors” to show restraint and not whip up sentiments over the India-Pakistan tensions. Squadron Leader Ninad Mandavgane was cremated with full military honours in Maharashtra’s Nashik, on Friday. Mandavgane, was the pilot of an Mi-17 V5 helicopter.

Squadron Leader Mandavgane wife’s Vijeta Mandavgane said, “We don’t want a war. You don't know the damages of war. We don’t want more Ninads to go. Social-media warriors, please stop. If you want war, go to the front.”

She said, “There is a lot happening on social media and on TV. Media acts responsibly and sometimes don’t. You shout slogans. Instead of that, if you truly want to bring about change for my Ninad, for Wing Commander Abhinandan and the martyrs, do a small thing. Either join the forces or make your family members join the forces. If you can't, then at least bring about small changes around you to help the nation. You can keep your surroundings clean, not litter the roads and not urinate in the public, not harassing girls.”
