This comes as a response of change in sentiments of the families following the COVID-19 pandemic, with many preferring the traditional customs over modern CNG cremation.

Out of the 24 crematoriums operated by the Amdavad Municipal Corporation (AMC), 23 offer wood cremation facilities in Ahmedabad.

Notably, the corporation-run crematoriums charge ₹799 per cremation, whereas cremation through CNG is free.
