Here’s why Indians go shopping for kidneys across the border
- There is no law banning sale of human organs in Pakistan
- Donors are easy to find. The quake has made many poor take this route.
- Unlike India, no clearances are needed from health authorities
- Kidneys come cheap, even for as low as under Rs 1 lakh
- Hospitals in Lahore and Rawalpindi offer package deals from $10,000 upwards, including cost of kidney
