During this campaign, Minister Suresh Bhardwaj, while talking to the media, said that blood donation is a great donation and saving someone’s life is the biggest charity and charity work in the world.  “When someone falls ill or suffers from accident, then  there is possibility of need for blood to save him or her,  if the need of blood is fulfilled at that time then life can be saved, so donating blood is called ‘Mahadan'”, said Suresh Bhardwaj. He said that Himachal Pradesh holds a leading position in the whole country in voluntary blood donation as blood is collected on the basis of voluntary blood donation in Himachal and there is no system of purchase and sale of any kind of blood.It is said that if someone donates blood to save someone’s life, then there is no physical weakness or weakness in him or her. Suresh Bhardwaj said that many times people spread misconceptions that donating blood leads to weakness, but in reality blood donation leads to purification and then within three months the donor becomes capable of donate blood again. In this context, Bhardwaj said that there are blood donors in Shimla who have donated blood more than a hundred times. He said that the misconceptions regarding blood donation are present especially in the rural areas, which the media can dispel.
