Preliminary report into Air India crash released
Is it easy to inadvertantly move both switches in such a scenario?

The switches are spring-loaded, notched in place, and have a rubber knob on the top. A pilot must squeeze the knob, remove the switch from its ON notch, press the switch, click it into the OFF notch, then release the knob.
Doing it accidentally is impossible.
