Minister Highlights Value of Blood Donation
Speaking at the event organised by the Sant Nirankari Charitable Foundation Trust, Vij emphasised that blood donation is one of the greatest services to humanity. He stated that when a person is struggling between life and death, every single drop of blood becomes invaluable. Vij noted that blood cannot be produced in any factory or artificially manufactured, calling it a priceless gift that one human being can give to another. This gift, he said, is capable of saving lives and offering a new beginning to those in need.

The Rs 1,100 incentive will be provided from the minister's discretionary fund to all blood donors at camps across the state. This move aims to encourage more people to participate in blood donation drives and address the constant demand for blood in hospitals and emergency situations.
