Act of generosity: Body of 2-day-old baby donated to Dehradun hospital

Saraswati had been suffering from a heart-related condition known as asphyxia and passed away shortly after birth. This donation is being recognized as the first instance in India where a newborn's body has been donated.

The bereaved family made this difficult decision in hopes of contributing to medical education and research. Dr Rajendra Saini from Haridwar stated, "The baby girl had a heart-related ailment that led to her passing on Wednesday morning."

The infant's father, Ram Mihir, works as a factory employee in Haridwar.
