Body Donation

The Savani Family in Surat has donated 36 bodies in the past 10 years to various medical colleges. Reportedly, the family had taken an oath, according to which the body of any member who dies will be donated for medical students. Interestingly, this oath has also turned into a campaign in Surat, encouraging body donations for medical colleges. Medical colleges with over 250 students need around 30-35 bodies every year.
