The Telangana Assembly has officially adopted a resolution to implement the Transplantation of Human Organs and Tissues Act, 1994 (Central Act No. 42 of 1994). This Act is crucial as it regulates organ transplantation and works to prevent any commercial transactions involving human organs and tissues. Although Telangana had its own Transplantation of Human Organs Act, 1995 (Act No. 24 of 1995), the state chose to go with the Central Act because of the amendments made in 2011. These amendments brought in provisions for tissue transplantation, the creation of state and national bodies, and stricter penalties for those who violate the law. With this adoption, Telangana can now effectively enforce the 2011 amendments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
