THE family of Ranjitha Gopakumaran Nair, a 39-year-old nurse who tragically lost her life in the Air India flight crash in Ahmedabad on June 12, continues to wait for confirmation of her identity through DNA testing.
The delay has deepened the anguish of her loved ones, who remain at her ancestral home in Pullad.
Minister for Fisheries Saji Cherian visited the family on Thursday, offering his condolences and assuring them of the government's support.
He pledged to expedite the repatriation process once DNA results confirm Ranjitha's identity.
