Family of brain-dead police officer decides to donate organs

Hyderabad: Family members of a 57-year-old Armed Reserve Assistant Sub Inspector, working in GRP Secunderabad, E Narsimha, who was declared brain dead, have decided to donate his organs to needy patients.

Hailing from Kodur, Mahabubnagar, Narasimha was a patient with Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) who underwent four sessions of dialysis. On November 3, he developed a high-grade fever and generalised weakness, followed by an episode of unresponsiveness amid hypertension.

His family immediately shifted him to a private hospital in Hyderabad. After emergency treatment, Narasimha was declared brain dead on November 10, 2026.

His wife E. Laxmi made the heartfelt decision to donate his organs. However, despite consent from his family, the donor organs, unfortunately, could not be utilised for transplantation.

According to Jeevandan, the kidneys could not be used for transplantation due to medical reasons while the liver was also found to have signs of inflammation associated with sepsis. The heart and lungs could not be retrieved due to respiratory complications, doctors said.

Jeevandan Telangana extended its gratitude to the family of E. Narsimha. The selfless and generous act of the family will stand as a powerful example of humanity and inspire others to support organ donation, Jeevandan in-charge, Dr D Sree Bhushan Raju said.
