  • The Health Ministry has expressed concern over states not compiling donor data, which affects organ transplant procedures in India.
  • The lack of organized data prevents proper tracking of donors and recipients, leading to potential misuse and unethical practices.
  • Incomplete donor data also hinders the efficient matching of organ donors with those in need, reducing the success rates of organ transplants.
  • Without comprehensive data compilation, there is a risk of illegal organ trafficking and commercialization of organ donations.
  • The absence of proper donor information management systems compromises transparency and accountability in the organ donation process.
