Kangpokpi, June 14 2025: The devastating Air India crash that claimed the lives of over 265 people, including 12 crew members, has plunged countless families into unimaginable sorrow.

Among the victims was Lamnunthem Singson, a young woman whose dreams were as bright as her smile and whose journey ended far too soon.

Lamnunthem Singson's brothers reached Ahmedabad late Friday evening for the painful task of submitting DNA samples to help identify what remains of their beloved sister.

DNA testing for Lamnunthem Singson is likely to be conducted on Monday or Tuesday next week, according'to a family source.

Lamnunthem Singson's mother collapses, DNA test likely next week

Back home in their modest rented house, a haunting silence lingered as Lamnunthem Singson's widowed mother, Nemneilhing Singson, clung to the hope that her daughter was merely in an intensive care unit, fighting for life.

The family had shielded her from the truth, terrified that the blow would be too much to bear.

But by Friday noon, the truth could no longer be kept hidden.

When the family finally broke the news to her, Nemneilhing collapsed to the ground, wailing in anguish.

Her only daughter, her pillar of strength, her hope, was gone.

The walls that once echoed with laughter now trembled under the weight of unspeakable grief.

Until that moment, no one dared to mourn openly.

No teats had been shed publicly.

The grief was suffocating, yet silent, out of respect, out of fear.

But once the mother knew, sorrow burst forth from every heart that had held it in.

Condolences began to pour in, and more visitors arrived.

That same evening, Thadou Baptist Association (TBA) Church in Kangpokpi, where Lamnunthem Singson, fondly called Neonu by her mother and family, had once sung hymns and shared fellowship, held a special condo lence service.

Members of the church and residents of the town gathered in quiet solidarity.

Through tearful voices, they sang consoling hymns.

Lamnunthem Singson was more than just a name on a cabin crew list.

She was a daughter, a sister, a friend.

She had dreams, love to give, and a world to see.

Now, her absence leaves a void that no time can ever fill.

In the stillness of the night, her mother whispers prayers for a daughter who will never walk through the door again.
