Kolkata: A Shift in End-of-Life Choices Towards Body and Organ Donation

Kolkata: A Shift in End-of-Life Choices Towards Body and Organ Donation

In Kolkata, more people are choosing to donate their bodies and organs after death.

They do this to help others, like giving sight to the blind or saving lives through organ transplants.

Some do it because they don't have family to take care of their body, or because they want to make a difference.

Doctors say more people are doing this, which helps more people get the organs they need.

To donate, you fill out a form and tell your family about your decision.
