As reported by Indian Express, Sanchari Vijay’s brother, Siddesh Kumar, told the media that the family has decided to donate his organs. He said, “Doctors have informed us that his brain stem has failed and the possibilities of him reviving are very slim. As you all know he always worked for the betterment of society. He even worked round the clock on the relief efforts during the Covid-19 pandemic. So, we have decided to donate his organs. We believe that it will bring him peace. He will continue to help society even in death. Thanks to everyone who tried to do their best to help him.”
