14-Year-Old Sudanese Boy Gets New Heart in Delhi After Donor Family in Panchkula Consent to Organ Donation

A 14-year-old Sudanese boy received a second chance at life after a heart transplant at Apollo Hospitals in Delhi. The donor heart was flown in from Panchkula, Haryana, where 41-year-old Sudeshna Singh, a teacher and wife of a serving Indian Army officer, was declared brain dead after a severe brain haemorrhage. Her family consented to organ donation. The transplant was completed successfully within a critical four-hour window, with a green corridor ensuring rapid transport from the airport.
