On 20th of March, Arunachal Life Saving Foundation and the Gauhati High Court, Itanagar Permanent Branch in Collaboration with Gauhati High Court Permanent Bench Bar Association organised a voluntary blood donation camp, with the motto “Donate Blood, Save Lives” at the high court premises.
The event saw a success as we gathered more than 62 participants for the programme. Among the participants were the Hon’ble Mr Justice (Judge) Budi Habung, who not only did inaugurate the camp but also donated blood to encourage his lawyers and advocates to do the same. The Registrar of Gauhati High Court, Shri Lobsang Tenzin, not only did he administrate the programme and donate blood but also encouraged his staff to donate. A huge number of donors came from the Bar Association who were seniors- both male and female.
A single unit of blood can change 3 lives at a time. With the demand of approx 332 units of blood per day in ICR, and the average collection of 40-65 units of blood per camp highlight the lack of awareness about voluntary blood donation among our people in the state despite our tireless efforts. Blood can only be donated by humans which is why it must be made mandatory for all organisations and pressure groups to include Blood Donation Camps as compulsory in their agendas in order to donate blood and save more lives of our own people.
