Ongole: The District Legal Services Authority organised a blood donation camp in the office premises on Friday.

The district judge and chairperson of the DLSA, MG Priyadarsini participated in the camp as the chief guest. She said that donating blood is nothing but giving life to a person. 

She said that every person should make it a habit to donate blood as there are people losing lives due to non-availability of blood on time.

He appreciated the students from NSS division of PACE College for coming forward to donate blood. 

He asked the youth to create awareness on blood donation and see more number of people participate in the camps.
