AMAZING!!!! Indian Aviation is clearly MUCH WORSE than i thought. BOTH pilots decision making skills are HORRIBLE.

First, the commanders decision to land five thousand feet down the runway.

Second, the first officers decision to prevent the go around and come within feet of going off the end.

If you could stop the aircraft before reaching the end, you DEFINITELY, with average pilot skills could have performed a safe Go Around, circle and do it right the next time.

Can't Indians do a simple touch and go??

Basic flying skills boys, basic flying skills.

Bye the way, I would have slapped the bleep out of the first officer for putting EVERYBODY at risk for touching the brake pedals.
