Part of the multi-storey building on Indonesia's Java island collapsed suddenly on Monday as students gathered for afternoon prayers.
“According to our calculation, the total number of victims we have evacuated are 149, with 45 reported dead ... and 104 survivors,“ Yudhi told reporters Sunday, up from a toll of 37 earlier on Sunday and including several body parts.
Yudhi said before the latest bodies were found on Sunday that at least 26 people were still missing.
“We will continue to do our best,“ he said.
Yudhi estimated that authorities would be able to clear the rubble by Tuesday.
“Our hope is that by tomorrow everything will be levelled and we can determine the approximate number of victims who are in the rubble,“ Budi said in a livestreamed news conference.
The rescue operation was complex because vibrations in one place could affect other areas, officials said.
Lax construction standards have raised widespread concerns about building safety in Indonesia.
