Thane | The last rites of flight attendant Roshni Songhare (27), who died in the crash of the Air India plane in Ahmedabad on June 12, were conducted in her hometown Dombivli in the district on Thursday morning.

A mournful Rajendra Songhare, her father, conducted the last rites at a local crematorium.

After her identity was confirmed through DNA testing, her mortal remains were handed over to the family late Wednesday night.

A special Air India flight transported the body to Mumbai, from where it was taken to Dombivli.

A steady stream of mourners visited her residence to pay their final respects.

The London-bound Air India flight AI-171 carrying 242 passengers and crew members crashed soon after take-off in Ahmedabad on June 12. All but one on board the plane died along with 29 on the ground when the aircraft smashed into a medical hostel complex.

Roshni had served with SpiceJet before joining Air India two years ago. Tributes poured in on her Instagram account which had over 54,000 followers.

She was set to marry a Merchant Navy officer from Thane in March next year.

"She had just begun to settle in life. We had dreams... they are now shattered," said a family member.
