Sri Ramakrishna Hospital

Six people got a new lease of life after the family of a 21-year old civil engineer, who was declared brain dead after an accident, donated his vital organs.

In a country where organ donation has failed to catch up more than two decades after it was introduced, a hospital in Coimbatore has set a Guinness World Record for popularizing the cause -- enrolling 13,206 donors in just 8 hours.
