CM Manik Saha Inaugurates District-Level Blood Donation Camp Virtually

 


Lauds Red Cross Volunteers for Lifelong Commitment to Humanity

Agartala, May 8: Tripura Chief Minister Prof. Dr. Manik Saha virtually inaugurated the district-level blood donation camp on the second day of the two-day-long programme organised by the Indian Red Cross Society, Tripura State Branch, to mark World Red Cross and Red Crescent Day 2025.

In his address, the Chief Minister praised the Indian Red Cross Society’s tireless service over the years through its humanitarian and social welfare initiatives. “The Indian Red Cross Society has long been devoted to the cause of serving humanity—be it through disaster management, blood donation, anti-drug awareness, or extending relief to the distressed,” he said.

The event commemorates the birth anniversary of Henry Dunant, the founder of the Red Cross Movement and the first Nobel Peace Prize laureate. The Red Cross Day serves as a reminder of the principles of neutrality, impartiality, voluntary service, and humanity.

Chief Minister Saha acknowledged the vital role played by Red Cross volunteers, especially in addressing health emergencies, helping during natural disasters, and raising awareness against substance abuse. “Their voluntary service keeps the spirit of humanity alive,” he said.

Referring to the district-level initiative, Dr. Saha highlighted how such activities strengthen grassroots participation in the humanitarian mission and inspire the youth to contribute. “The future of our nation rests on active, socially responsible citizens. Red Cross volunteers set an excellent example,” he added.

The CM’s speech served as a motivational address to the volunteers and staff who had assembled virtually from various districts. He expressed his appreciation and encouraged continuous engagement in humanitarian causes.

The second day of the programme witnessed enthusiastic participation from volunteers, medical staff, and community members. With blood shortages being a consistent health concern in the state, the initiative was praised for addressing a critical need.

Senior officials from the Red Cross Society and district administrations also attended the virtual event, reinforcing their support for the campaign. The programme concluded with a pledge to continue humanitarian service in line with the Red

Cross Movement’s values.
