Indian Medical Association’s Yadgir unit, in association with VBR Multi-Speciality Hospital, organised a blood donation camp at VBR Multi-Speciality Hospital here on Thursday to mark National Blood Donation Day.
The former MLA Venkatareddy Mudnal, who inaugurated the event, said that good health is assured even if one donates blood once in three months. “Donating blood will help one to reduce cholesterol in the human body and control blood pressure,“ he added.

“The hospital and IMA jointly organised the blood donation camp to fulfill their commitment towards social service,” Dr. Mudnal added.
Several people donated blood during the event.
District Health Officer Prabhulinga Manakar, IMA president Bhagawanth Anawar, Sangamma Mudnal, Basavaraj Narasanagi, Vaijanath Duggani, Prashanth Basutkar, Veeresh Jaka, Rajendra, Amogh, Sanjeev Raichurkar and Sunil, all doctors, and Archana Kulkarni and Ambarish, hospital staff, were present.
