Surat (Gujarat) [India], December 29 (ANI/PNN): More than 1 lakh people pledged to donate their organs at “Dikri Jagat Janani”, the mass marriage ceremony of 300 fatherless girls organised by PP Savani Group in Surat on Saturday.

More than 1 lakh people, who were present at the mass wedding ceremony, pledged to donate their organs, enabling the event to find a place in the India Book of Records. Surat is among the leading cities in organ donation and the record for 1 lakh people vowing to donate their organs is akin to another feather in the Diamond City’s cap.

At PP Savani Group, we are committed to contributing to society and humanity in every way possible, and we consider it our privilege to have facilitated this event and be a part of this world record,” said Mahesh Savani.

Three hundred fatherless girls were married at the grand mass marriage ceremony organised by PP Savani. It was an emotional moment for the brides as Mahesh Savani showered them with fatherly love and blessings, making them forget for a while that their own fathers were not with them any more.

“We are not only giving Kariyavar (gifts given by the bride’s father to the bride and her relatives) but also shoulder all the responsibility of our daughters throughout their marriage life,” said Mahesh Savani of PP Savani group. “We shoulder all the responsibility of our daughters’ families related to education, health and other responsibilities”, said Vipul Talaviya, Administrator of PP Savani Hospital and Media Convener of PP Savani Group.
