The discussion and questions put forth by the audience highlighted the need for a state regulatory body such as SOTTO to look into a registry that will ensure a fair and equitable distribution of organs and also avoid any wastage of organs. It was agreed by all present that such a body will regulate the deceased organ donation and transplantation program in Gujarat and streamline processes.
