Three days after the crash, only 35 bodies had been handed over to relatives from an overall official death toll of 270.
An Air India plane with more than 200 people on board crashed near the airport in India's city of Ahmedabad, the airline and police officials said.
Air India's Chairman N. Chandrasekaran on Monday told staff that last week's plane crash that killed at least 271 people should be a catalyst to build a safer airline, urging employees to stay resolute amid any criticism.
