The Organ Donation and Transplantation Act

The Organ Donation and Transplantation Act is a law that regulates the process of donating and receiving organs for transplantation. Its primary goal is to ensure ethical practices, protect donors and recipients, and promote organ donation. The Act stipulates how organs can be legally obtained, often requiring consent from donors or their families. It also establishes a framework for the allocation of donated organs to patients in need, aiming to make the process fair and transparent. Ultimately, the Act seeks to save lives by increasing the availability of organs for those suffering from organ failure.
