Sant Nirankari Mission will organise a large scale blood donation camp at Bhopal in the sacred memory of Baba Gurbachan Singh Maharaj who laid down his life for upholding the cause of peace, harmony and universal brotherhood on April 24, 1980.
While talking to media persons here on Wednesday at Nirankari Bhawan, convener of Bhopal branch of Sant Nirankari Mandal Ashok Juneja said the Nirankari mission holds hundreds of blood donation camps across the country and in many foreign countries too as homage to the humanitarian life and vision of Baba Gurbachan singh Maharaj.
“When we need blood, we don’t discriminate whether it is a blood of a Hindu or a Muslim or a Christian. Blood donation is also a means to promote harmony and brotherhood. When the blood of one person saves the lives and flow in the veins of many belonging to different castes and faiths, then who will be considered as an alien or outcaste,” he added.
Ashok Juneja also informed that Nirankari mission started organising Blood Donation Camps since 1986 when the first camp was organised at Delhi by the inspiration of Baba Hardev Singh. Since then the number of camps have been increasing every year and from 1999 onwards mission is organising more than 100 blood donation camps every year throughout the nation. Till March 31, 2016, in more than 4500 camps as much as 7,88,601 units of blood has been donated. In Bhopal, the first blood donation camp was organised by the mission in 1990 and till now more than 3300 units of blood have been donated in these camps. In these sequences, Bhopal branch of Sant Nirankari Mandal is organising a large scale blood donation camp at Bhopal on Sunday 18 June, 2017. The camp will be held in the supervision of experts from Government Hamidia Hospital.
