Making every drop count at birth anniv of Bhagat Singh

To commemorate the 125th birth anniversary of Bhagat Singh, the AAP government on Wednesday organised donation blood camps across the city and launched a month-long exhibition on the life of the martyr at the historical site of Qudsia Bagh.

The mega blood donation drive was launched by chief minister Arvind Kejriwal at Maulana Azad Medical College. Kejriwal said 73 locations across the city saw a large number of people queue up to donate blood. "Shaheed-eAzam Bhagat Singh committed the supreme sacrifice at a young age of 23. His life has been a constant source of inspiration for the youth ever since. We are starting a custom of organising blood donation camps on Bhagat Singh's birth anniversary. We will hold blood donation camps on an even bigger scale from next year," the chief minister said.
