The four friends and inhabitants of the Ghazipur area in Uttar Pradesh, Abhishek Kushwaha (25), Vishal Sharma (25), Anil Kumar Rajbhar (25) and Sonu Jaiswal (30), were among the five Indians on the Yeti Airlines aircraft from Kathmandu to Pokhara that crashed on Sunday. Sanjay Jaiswal, the fifth individual, is yet unidentified.
The four families had been contacted by the authorities, according to Ghazipur District Magistrate Aryaka Akhauri.
While Sonu Jaiswal had homes in Chak Jainab and Alawalpur Chatti but was currently residing in Varanasi, Rajbhar was a resident of Chak Jainab in the Badesar area, and Kushwaha was from Dharwa in the Nonhara area of Ghazipur. Sharma was from the village of Alawalpur Chatti in the Badesar area of the district.
Sonu Jaiswal was a businessman, Sharma was working with a private firm, and Rajbhar and Kushwaha were running a Jan Seva Kendra in Ghazipur.
Sonu Jaiswal’s father, Rajendra Jaiswal, said Sonu, his wife Ragni and three children — aged between 18 months and seven years — had recently moved to Varanasi.
