AGARTALA, Aug 28 (TIWN): CM Manik Sarkar in Sunday in a blood donation program at Agartala press club termed the 23rd August incident at undesirable and unwanted. He further said that, August 23rd incident has hampered the peace and tranquillity of the state and further appealed to the citizens to maintain peace and tranquillity.

Appreciating the initiative taken by the Agartala press club for organising a blood donation camp, Chief Minister said that there is no alternative of blood. He appealed to donate blood as much as possible as there is no substitute for human blood.

Besides, he also urged to continue with this kind of social activities so that the people can be helped.

Blood donation occurs when a person voluntarily has blood drawn and used for transfusions.

Donating blood should become a habit for the mass as blood can save life. Some time, we come across many patients who pass away due to insufficient blood in the hospitals or the Blood Bank but the regular initiatives of the people may save the life.

It is to be mentioned here that several people need blood when they meet any accident or their body require more blood after the body losses blood in injury or diseases. Therefore, on that situation people require blood which becomes possible with the donated blood.

However, Chief Minister Manik Sarkar has unfurled the programme in the presence of the other dignitaries at Agartala press club.
