To make the organ transplant procedure more transparent and curb organ trafficking, the City Human Organ Authority Committee has sought support from the police department. The panel has written a letter to local police officers in this regard.
After a kidney racket was exposed in Pune in March, the state government set up three regional authority panels to expedite the transplant process involving live donors and recipients.
