Organ transplant centres: Govt asked to file counter
The New Indian Express Vijayawada
|July 24, 2025
THE Andhra Pradesh High Court directed the State government to file a counter-affidavit in response to a PIL seeking to designate 100-bed government teaching hospitals as organ transplant centres.
The division bench, comprising Chief Justice Dhiraj Singh Thakur and Justice Cheemalapati Ravi, expressed dissatisfaction over the government's failure to file a counter since the PIL was filed in 2016 by J Bhargavi, president of Gareeb Guide NGO.
The court observed that establishing organ transplant facilities in government hospitals could curb illegal rackets. Petitioner's counsel D Veera Rao highlighted that all nine organ transplant hospitals in the State are private, and despite 1,200 annual applications for organ transplants, only 100 donors are available due to a lack of awareness.
