Case filed in High Court to seek review of Human Organ Transplant Act [1]

Following unearthing of the kidney transplant racket in neighbouring Gurgaon, a Delhi-based social activist has filed a public interest litigation in the Delhi High Court seeking directions for, among other things, a review of the Human Organ Transplant Act, 1994, to enlarge the scope of prospective kidney donors to check illegal transplants and make the treatment accessible to poor patients as well.
