RAJKOT: Had she not met with the accident she would have been shopping for clothes and jewellery to begin a new life after marriage. But instead, in her death, 20-year-old Nidhi Srivastava from Jamnagar gave a new lease of life to five persons. After Nidhi was declared brain dead by doctors on Thursday, her family decided to donate her organs —two kidneys, a liver and a pancreas.
According to Nidhi’s father Sonulal Srivastava, he was in his hometown Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh, last week to fix his daughter’s marriage. This is when he got the news that Nidhi had fallen down in the house and suffered injury on the back of the head. She was rushed to a hospital in Jamnagar and later shifted to a hospital in Ahmedabad. Sonulal, a labourer, is native of Varanasi but settled in Jamnagar for many years.
