Air India flight AI171, a Boeing 787-8 carrying 242 people, crashed after taking off from Ahmedabad on its way to London.
Three days after the crash, only 35 bodies had been handed over to relatives from an overall official death toll of 270.
The Air India flight fell from the sky on Thursday and killed at least 270 people in Gujarat state, officials said Saturday.
The crash happened just weeks after the company cut a deal with the U.S. government to avoid taking criminal responsibility for a pair of deadly crashes in 2018 and 2019.
