Agartala (Tripura) [India], May 12 : Tripura Chief Minister Manik Saha, along with Minister Tinku Roy, attended a blood donation camp in the state capital on Sunday and highlighted the importance of donating blood, especially in times of emergency.
In a show of community and spirit, Agartala hosted several blood donation events, witnessing substantial public involvement and support from local dignitaries.
Two notable camps highlighted the city's commitment to healthcare and humanitarian efforts.
Chief Minister Manik Saha, along with Minister Tinku Roy, attended a blood donation camp organised by the Prajapita Brahma Kumari Ishwariya Viswa Vidyalaya.
The event saw a robust turnout, with nearly 50 individuals donating blood. CM Saha spoke at the event and highlighted the importance of such initiatives, especially in times of emergency.
"The blood collected today could potentially save numerous lives in times of crisis," CM Saha remarked, underscoring the essential support provided by the state's network of 14 blood banks, including two privately run facilities.
Simultaneously, another meaningful event took place at the Shri Ram Thakur Seva Mandir in Banamalipur, organised in commemoration of the Tirodham Day of the esteemed 4th Mahant Maharaj Shreemad Bhavatosh Vandopadhyay.
The camp, attended by CM Saha and prominent journalist Subal Kumar De, attracted 25 voluntary donors.
This camp not only served the community's health needs but also paid homage to the spiritual leader's enduring legacy of selflessness and service.
Both events emphasised the significant impact of collective community actions in meeting crucial healthcare demands and strengthening communal bonds.
Minister Tinku Roy praised the donors' spirit, urging continued participation in such life-saving activities.
"The collective contribution of donors can bridge the gap between demand and supply during medical emergencies," he stated.
These blood donation camps exemplify Agartala's dedication to fostering a sense of solidarity and support within the community and resonating deeply with the teachings and values of the figures they honoured.
