B’lore gets a ‘licence’ to donate organs

Bangalore: Motorists here who wish to donate their organs after they die can now carry a sticker in their driving licence, affirming their pledge.      Bangalore's Electronic City RTO and NGO Gift Your Organ are launching the initiative to issue 'special' driving licences to motorists who have pledged their organs. The licence will have a green sticker which says the holder has pledged his/her organs.      "The NGO first proposed this idea. The government said it should be taken up on a pilot basis. We are initially launching this initiative in the Electronic City RTO," said transport commissioner T Sham Bhat.
