Nearly 5,000 people in Maharashtra pledged to donate organs over the past ten days as part of the government’s ‘Jeevan Sanjeevani Abhiyan’ campaign, officials said on Wednesday.
A total of 4,900 citizens from Maharashtra’s Thane district took the pledge.
According to a release by the Zilla Parishad, to make the process more citizen-friendly, the Health Department has simplified the online registration process for organ donation.
“Citizens can register by scanning the QR code or by visiting the website notto.abdm.gov.in using their Aadhaar number or Abha-linked mobile. After completing the pledge, the certificate can also be downloaded,” it said.
The drive is being held from August 3 to August 15, it said, adding that 4,900 citizens have so far registered their pledge to donate organs.
On the other hand, if we look at the data, India lacks a shortage of organ donors, particularly from deceased donors, despite a growing need for transplants.
