He added that senior officers of the police and FSL had been present till late at night every day to monitor the process.
According to him, teams had worked through the night for the last three days to ensure that DNA samples could be matched and remains handed over to grieving families as quickly as possible.
The Gujarat government coordinated closely with the Civil Hospital to ensure smooth communication between officials and victims’ families.
Meanwhile, Efforts to identify victims of the recent Air India plane crash are progressing, with DNA verification completed for 119 individuals so far, according to Dr Rakesh Joshi, Superintendent of Ahmedabad Civil Hospital.
