Panaji: The Goa chapter of the Indian Medical Association (IMA) has expressed serious concern over the delay in setting up an Organ and Tissue Transplant Organisation (SOTTO) in the state.
Medha Salkar, the IMA state president, said as a donor she would not like her organs to be wasted after her death.
She also demanded that the kin of the brain dead patients be allowed to take them to other states for the retrieval of their organs.
