Mega blood donation camps under BJD’s Jeevan Bindu programme were held across Odisha to mark the occasion. Several senior leaders and party workers donated blood today on party supremo Naveen Patnaik’s birthday today.
“Blood donation camps are being organised at 60 places in the State. I am deeply grateful to all those who wished me on my birthday,” said Naveen Patnaik after meeting blood donors at party headquarters in Bhubaneswar.
Patnaik had announced that he would not celebrate his birthday in view of cyclone Fani that caused massive destruction in several parts of the state in May this year. He had also urged party workers to visit orphanages and schools meant for disabled children instead of wishing him at Naveen Niwas.
