Indore Aims to Lead Organ Donation
Indore is working hard to get more people to donate organs.
They want to get 100,000 promises from people to donate.
The city already does a lot of organ donations, and they want to do even more.
They will teach people about it in schools and colleges.
They will also make it easier for people to donate by improving hospitals and creating a special website.
Many important people, like the mayor and doctors, are helping with this plan.
They want Indore to be the best city in India for organ donation.
Indore aims to collect 100,000 online pledges for organ donation in the next two months.
The city already leads Madhya Pradesh in organ donations, with 195 out of 350 last year.
Awareness programs will be conducted in schools, colleges, and local communities.
A dedicated portal will be developed to convert brain stem death cases into organ donation opportunities.
Infrastructure improvements are planned for the Super Speciality Hospital and Maharaja Yeshwantrao Hospital.
