India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau (AAIB) is leading the inquiry into the cause of the crash, with assistance from teams from the US and the UK.

On Sunday, officials from the US National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) surveyed the crash site to gather information.

A statement released on Sunday mentioned that the AAIB is conducting a detailed investigation, while the NTSB is also conducting a parallel probe under international protocols due to the aircraft being American-made.

Reports from Indian media outlets suggest that officials from Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) have visited the crash site as well.

Additionally, a high-level committee established by the Indian government to investigate the crash is set to hold its first meeting on Monday.

The committee aims to submit a preliminary report within three months and propose new standard operating procedures to prevent similar incidents in the future.

As the investigation progresses, families affected by the crash are still coping with shock and trauma.

The AI171 flight crashed into a doctors' accommodation building at the BJ Medical College and Civil Hospital less than a minute after taking off from Ahmedabad's Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel International Airport, resulting in the loss of all but one of the 242 passengers and crew members.

Efforts are underway to determine the number of ground casualties and identify the victims through DNA matching.

Doctors have recovered 270 bodies from the crash site, with over 90 victims identified through DNA matching. Dr. Rajnish Patel of Ahmedabad's Civil Hospital mentioned that 47 identified bodies have been returned to their families.

Among the identified victims is Vijay Rupani, the former chief minister of Gujarat, whose funeral is scheduled for Monday with full state honours in Rajkot city.

However, many families are still awaiting news about their loved ones.

The identification process has been slow and meticulous due to the condition of the bodies, with officials processing them in small batches.

Mistry Jignesh, waiting for updates on his niece outside the hospital, expressed frustration over delays in receiving her remains, highlighting the emotional toll the waiting process is taking on families.
