Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Thursday said that the temperature in the Air India plane which crashed in Ahmedabad was so high due to burning fuel that there was no chance to save anyone, reported the PTI.

"There was 1.25 lakh litre of fuel inside the plane and it caught heat so it was impossible to save anyone," Amit Shah told reporters, according to the PTI.

The entire nation is in deep shock following the tragedy, he said.
