Hyderabad: The All-India Payam e Insaniyat Foundation successfully organized a Mega Voluntary Blood Donation Camp in Malakpet today, aimed at supporting Thalassemia patients who require regular blood transfusions. The event saw a remarkable participation of 632 donors, with blood units being collected to help those battling Thalassemia, a genetic disorder that requires frequent blood donations, as well as cancer patients.

The camp was graced by the presence of Anil Kumar Yadav, Member of Parliament, and Ahmed bin Abdullah Balala, MLA of Malakpet, who visited the camp to support the initiative. They were joined by Abu Aimal and the dedicated team from the Telangana State Blood Cell (TSCS), who played a key role in organizing the event.

TSCS President Dr. Chandrakant Agarwal addressed the gathering, urging the Hon’ble MP and MLA to support the introduction of a Government Order (G.O.) for mandatory antenatal tests, specifically the HbA2 test for pregnant women.
