A website in English and Hindi would be launched from January 26 here to promote organ transplantation and its donation after death.
The bilingual website would make available a detailed database regarding organ transplant and its donation after the death of a person, official sources said today.
Information about all formalities and procedures to be followed to donate limbs and transplantation would be put up on the website.
Those eager to donate their organs would be able to fill an online declaration form, they said.
