The family got home to prepare for the final rites. "But we noticed my father was breathing heavily; his heart was beating ," the son said. The man was rushed to another hospital. "Doctors attended to my father, and he regained consciousness within half an hour," the son added. Upset over the incorrect declaration of death, the son revisited Dr Ahuja at the hospital and asked him for the death certificate. With this certificate, he later demanded that the administration initiate action against the doctor for "medical negligence". Explaining the "mistake", the doctor said the patient was brought unconscious with no heartbeat when he examined him in the rickshaw. In the same vein, the doctor said he was unable to hear properly due to loud noise due to construction work going on nearby. He claimed he had told the family to take the man to another hospital having a ventilator facility. "But they returned only to trap me and asked for the death certificate. ..," the doctor said.

‘Give us whole body, not partial remains': Families of Ahmedabad plane crash victims; 2 heads found in 1 body bag, DNA test to be repeated
'Give us whole body, not partial remains': Families of Ahmedabad plane crash victims; two heads in one body bag will delay DNA process AHMEDABAD: Amid grieving families struggling to accept the impossibility of recovering all the remains of their loved ones, the process of victim identification is encountering unexpected hurdles. In one challenging case, two heads were found in a body bag, necessitating a repeat of the entire DNA testing procedure, which takes around 72 hours. 'This will require the DNA sampling process to be repeated as the parts belong to two victims and shouldn't be in the same bag,' said a senior official at the Civil Hospital. On Saturday, a man was seen pleading with the officials to hand over all the remains of his family members for the last rites, but he was informed that this was an improbable task. 'It was hard to convince him,' said the official. Outside the postmortem room of the 1,200-bed Civil Hospital, where health department personnel have stored body bags for DNA analysis, anguished relatives hold on to hope that the officials will be able to retrieve all the remains of every victim. 'We have an established clinical protocol which includes placing the remains in body bags, transferring them to cold storage, conducting analysis and finally handing over the identified remains in coffins to the families. We cannot assure the families of retrieval of complete body parts of the victims as the remains are charred,' the official added. HOSPITAL'S CHECKLIST FOR RELATIVES OF THE DECEASED On Saturday, Civil Hospital authorities issued a checklist and dos and don'ts for the relatives of the deceased for quick procedure of the handover of the mortal remains. It is advisable for the relative who has provided DNA sample to come for the handover of mortal remains In case it is not possible, close relatives of the person should come.
