Imphal, December 08 2020:
Democratic Students' Alliance of Manipur (DESAM) today inaugurated 73rd Mega Blood Donation Camp in connection with its 19th Foundation day.
Oinam Romesh Singh, health and environment secretary DESAM, said the mega blood donation camp will continue till December 30 with the cooperation of blood banks at RIMS, JNIMS and SHIJA hospitals.
Speaking at the programme, Dr A Barindra Sharma, Prof and Head of Department Transfusion Medicine, RIMS, said owing to the pandemic the number of volunteers at blood bank was drastically reduced resulting in shortage of blood units at the hospitals and urged other organisations to follow the lead of DESAM in donating blood.
8 volunteers of DESAM donated blood at today's inaugural function and DESAM urged the people to donate blood during this mega blood donation camp.
