The Union Health Ministry has decided to give training in organ and tissue transplantation at all government hospitals.

Union Health Minister J.P. Nadda reportedly said, “There has been a delay on the government side towards promoting organ donation, but the decisions we have taken in the last one year will make this cause a meaningful activity.

“We have decided to train the paramedics in government hospitals in organ and tissue transplantation and sensitise them about organ donation, so that they can further pitch the issue in the society,” he said.
