I am surprised to note that the minimum weight required for pltelet donation is  65KG.

After reading this I have looked at various websites (not indian sites) and found that minimum weight required for platelet donation is only 110 pounds (45KG), which is same criterion as whole blood donation.

Can you kindly check if 65KG is the criterion set by NACO

Thanks.
