In a remarkable display of compassion, the family of a 25-year-old BHMS student, who tragically passed away in a Jalna accident on December 29, 2025, consented to organ donation. This selfless act provided a new lease on life for multiple individuals across different cities.
On January 1, 2026, a vital lung transplant was performed on a Pune patient at DPU Super Specialty Hospital. The critical organs were transported from Jalna to Pune via a specially orchestrated green corridor, navigating New Year's Day traffic with police support.
The successful transfer, completed in 4.5 hours, highlights the seamless coordination between medical teams and authorities. The donor's liver was also successfully transplanted in Pune, while the recipient of the lungs, a Mumbai resident suffering from interstitial lung disease, can now breathe freely.
