On September 25, as part of the ongoing Seva Pakhwada initiative, the Leader of the Opposition inaugurated a blood donation camp at Padder, Kishtwar.
The camp on Thursday witnessed enthusiastic participation from citizens, particularly the youth, who came forward in large numbers to contribute to this noble, life-saving cause.
Sharma extended his heartfelt appreciation to all the blood donors and the organisers for their commendable efforts in making the camp a resounding success.
He emphasised that such initiatives not only strengthened public health infrastructure but also nurtured the values of compassion, social responsibility and nation-building.
Highlighting the significance of Seva Pakhwada, he said, “The spirit of selfless service and community welfare lies at the core of our cultural ethos, and the active involvement of people in such programmes reflects the collective resolve to build a healthier and stronger society.”
LoP further urged the youth to continue their active participation in similar welfare drives, as their energy and dedication were vital for shaping a progressive nation.
He added, “Blood donation is the greatest gift one can offer to humanity, as it saves countless lives in times of emergencies, natural calamities, and medical crises.”
Sharma reiterated his commitment to encourage more such health-related initiatives across the region so that no individual was deprived of timely medical support.
