Agartala, 25th June 2024: During the inauguration of a blood donation camp held at Netaji Subhas Vidyaniketan, Minister Tinku Roy on Tuesday assured that the state has a sufficient blood supply, contingent upon effective management and the absence of negligence.
The camp, organized jointly by the NSS Unit and the Alumni Association of Netaji Subhas Vidyaniketan, witnessed active participation from students and alumni.

The Minister noted with enthusiasm that, for the first time in 18 years, students from Netaji Subhas Vidyaniketan participated in the camp, expressing hope for continued efforts in organizing such events.
