Governor Dr Tamilisai Soundararajan spoke at an event celebrating World Blood Donor Day-2023 in Hyderabad. She stressed the importance of blood donation and urged more people to come forward to save lives. A special blood donation camp was set up for the event. Dr Soundararajan explained that one donor can help at least two to three patients, but there is still a shortage of blood units. She called on students, youth, and others to learn about the benefits of donating blood and overcome any fears or hesitations. The Governor honored some blood donors who had donated at least 50 times, as well as institutions like TCS, SBI Staff College, Osmania University, and the ICICI for collecting the highest number of blood units. She also awarded certificates to representatives from IRCS Hanumakonda and Nizamabad for ISO certification. Several people voluntarily donated blood at the event, including a newly married couple, a TSSPF constable, and a medical PG doctor.
