Meanwhile, a seamless green corridor was quickly established to transport the liver and the remaining kidney to Delhi, ensuring the vital organs reached two additional recipients without delay.

This successful, highly coordinated medical effort highlights the clinical excellence and strong synergy between the two military hospitals. The operation reflects the unwavering commitment of the Armed Forces to serve humanity and save lives during critical moments.
