Srinagar:\u00a0 An inspiring display of selfless service and humanitarian commitment was witnessed at a blood donation camp held at Sub-District Hospital (SDH) Sopore, where renowned social workers, popularly known as the \u201cBlood Man and Woman of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir,\u201d Shabir Hussain of Srinagar and Bilques Ara of Sopore, once again set an extraordinary example by donating blood.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Shabir Hussain donated for the 143rd time, while Bilques Ara marked her 43rd donation, reinforcing their long-standing dedication to saving human lives.<\/p>\n
Speaking to the media persons, Shabir Hussain said that he has been regularly donating blood for the past 45 years, having begun this noble journey in 1980. He emphasised that his mission has never been driven by recognition or awards, but purely by the desire to save precious human lives. \u201cBlood donation is one of the greatest services to humanity. If my blood can give someone a second chance at life, that itself is my reward,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
His unparalleled dedication has earned him immense respect across IIOJK, inspiring countless people, especially the youth, to voluntarily donate blood.<\/p>\n
The camp also highlighted another powerful story of courage and compassion through Bilques Ara of Sopore, who donated blood for the 43rd time. Recalling her emotional journey, she said she began donating blood in 2014 after her young son fell into a coma and urgently needed blood. \u201cAt that critical time, no one came forward to donate blood for my child,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat painful experience changed my life. I decided to become a regular blood donor and also motivate others so that no parent ever has to suffer due to the non-availability of blood,\u201d she added. Since then, Bilques Ara has remained steadfast in her commitment, actively spreading awareness about voluntary blood donation and encouraging people, especially women, to participate in this life-saving cause.<\/p>\n
She emphasized that \u201csaving one life is equal to saving the whole of humanity,\u201d and urged people to regularly come forward for this noble cause.<\/p>\n
The blood donation camp witnessed enthusiastic participation from donors and was widely appreciated by medical staff and the local community.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
