He disclosed that the ring served as a connection to his parents, Ashok and Shobana Patel, who died in the tragic crash.

Miten also spoke about the immense difficulty he has faced since the loss of his loved ones.

He, however, credited his parents for teaching him how to remain strong emotionally in the face of adversity and pain.

In his words:

"It's been very difficult, very difficult. Never in a million years would we think that we'd be going through this. There's been some miracle from this as well. After discussing with them and having a good meeting, they actually found my father's ring, which he was wearing on the plane. And I have that right now.

"This is the ring that he was wearing and I know that I have a piece of my parents. Most likely, my dad was wearing this on his hand, holding my mom's hand in the positions that they were in the seats. So, I know that they were both connected to this ring, and I have that forever.

"Personally, within myself, how am I dealing with this? My mother and father taught me to be strong when problems happen, to keep as strong as possible and deal with every single situation. They always told me that whatever situation happens in life, good or bad, there's always a solution to that problem.
"So, at the moment, I haven't grieved. I don't intend to until I give them the funeral and cremation that we need to do. And then I will grieve in my own time. But at the moment, I have to keep a very level head and make them proud, which I hope I am doing."
