Indore Sets Up 68th Green Corridor For Organ Donation

A 25-year-old man, Gaurav Dave, was declared brain dead after suffering a sudden brain haemorrhage on July 13. He was admitted to Rajshree Apollo Hospital in Indore, but his condition did not improve despite treatment.

After two medical examinations, a specialist team declared him brain-dead on Sunday night. Amid their grief, the Dave family decided to donate Gaurav's organs, including his heart, liver, kidneys, and eyes, to save the lives of multiple patients.

The donated organs were transported safely through Indore's 68th green corridor, which was set up on Monday. Gaurav's liver was transplanted into a 42-year-old patient at Rajshree Apollo Hospital, while his heart was transported to UN Mehta Hospital in Ahmedabad, where it will be transplanted into a 28-year-old man.

His two kidneys were donated to two women aged 22 and 52, who are undergoing treatment at Choithram Hospital in Indore. His eyes were donated through Shankara Eye Bank. The lungs were initially allocated to a patient at Apollo Hospital, Chennai, but the donation was cancelled due to logistical issues.

Two green corridors were created on Monday to transport the donated organs. The first route from Apollo Hospital to Indore Airport was completed in 13 minutes, while the second corridor from Apollo Hospital to Choithram Hospital was completed in 16 minutes. Indore Traffic Police played a key role in ensuring smooth transportation.

As a mark of respect, a guard of honour was given to organ donor Gaurav Dave at Apollo Hospital, with people forming a human chain and showering flowers during his final farewell. This initiative marks another milestone in Indore's organ donation network.

The city's 67th green corridor was created on March 24, 2026, to transport the organs of a 34-year-old civil engineer who was declared brain-dead after a brain haemorrhage. With his family's consent, his kidneys and skin were donated, giving a new lease of life to two patients.
