[ad_1]
The promise that Oshin Ale Magar, a flight attendant who studied in India and died in a plane crash in Nepal, would return from Pokhara after work so that she could celebrate the Maghe Sankranti holiday with her family was what drove her to leave her home on Sunday. Oshin, 24, was one of 69 individuals who died on Sunday after Yeti Airlines' 9N-ANC ATR-72 plane crashed on the bank of the Seti River in the resort city of Pokhara in central Nepal. The plane had 72 people on board, including five Indians.
When they learned of the plane tragedy, her family was preparing for the celebration at home. Her father, Mohan Ale Magar, a retired Indian Army soldier, recalls telling her not to report to work on a special day early in the morning. On that day, she insisted on celebrating the festival after finishing two flights, Mohan told Republica newspaper over the phone.
