cadaver donation

Dr Sunil Shroff, a renal transplant surgeon, established the MOHAN Foundation in 1997 after facing criticism abroad over the rising kidney transplant scams in India. His organisation educates and empowers people to take the organ donation pledge.

Organ donation awareness among India's youth has increased.

This 76-year-old former nurse at Safdarjung hospital before dying expressed her wish to donate her organs, including her skin, to her family.

His entire family consented to donate his organs, giving a fresh lease of life to six critically-ill individuals.

While his heart was flown to Mumbai and transplanted in three-year-old girl Aaradhya Yogesh Mule, a resident of Navi Mumbai; his kidneys will be transplanted in a 15-year-old boy from Deesa in Banaskantha district, battling renal failure for over 10 years.
