Kundapur,02 Mar 2013: CPI (M) activists Koni Venkatesh Nayak and Shobha V Nayak couple, residing at Byndoor near here signed the papers to donate their bodies after death to Kasturba Medical College, Manipal, here on Wednesday February 27.
Koni Venkatesh Nayak firmly believes that if their mortal remains are in any way helpful in research for the welfare of mankind, they made the right choice. They don’t believe in cremation of body and last rites that will entitle them eternal reward. One does not know whether one gets rebirth, said Venkatesh Nayak.
