One of the Mumbai 7/11 blast victims, Parag Sawant, recovered miraculously nearly after five years of coma life. He was in coma for nearly five years due to severe brain injuries and now regained his consciousness after several brain surgeries.
Parag was travelling on a Virar-bound local train July 11, 2006, returning home after work when a bomb went off. It was one in a series of seven train blasts that rocked Mumbai that day killing nearly 200 people and injuring close to a thousand. Parag suffered severe brain trauma and went into coma. He was 27 years old, his wife six months pregnant.
In 2008, he spoke a few words. And today, he has regained consciousness - something that's being seen as nothing short of a miracle.
"He speaks clearly. He also remembers events in the past, even things related to the blast," said Mr Jaiprakash.
