The eminent litterateur Sunil Gangapadhya pledged his body be donated after his death.But his family took the decision of not honuring his last wish and decided to cremate him.It's true, had his dead body been handed over to the appropriate authority for use in medical purposes with in 48 hrs of his death as is the norm, a countless admirers of the legendary author would have been denied the opportunity of paying last tribute to the departed soul.Perhaps this aspect was in the back of mind of the of the family members of the late author and they didn't agree to donate his body, though the consent of the relatives of the deceased is not necessary in this respect.What's interesting and worrying too is that that family members of other celebrities too might react in the same way in case of handing hover the pledged body to the concerned authority after death in contravention of the last wish of the deceased.Any way, the family members of Sunil refrained from celebrating his Sardh ceremony as he didn't like it in his life time.
