PM Modi Birthday 2026: Youth Participation In Blood Donation
Speaking at the event, Council President Mahesh Chand Srivastava said young people had a strong sense of social responsibility and that their energy needed to be channelled towards constructive activities.
He said the ‘Modi’s GenZ Blood Squad’ initiative was organised to provide young people with a platform to participate in social service. The youth also extended birthday greetings to Prime Minister Modi in what organisers described as a Gen Z style, hailing him as “OG”, “ Greatest of All Time (GOAT)” and “Legend”.
Focus On Voluntary Blood Donation
Srivastava said young people often have hesitation and misconceptions about blood donation and that such programmes could help create greater awareness about voluntary blood donation. He said encouraging young people to donate blood could also help promote regular blood donation in the future.
The event brought together first-time donors as well as other young participants, with organisers highlighting voluntary donation as an accessible way for young people to contribute to the community.
First-Time Donor Shares Experience
Blood donor Ayush, who said it was his first blood donation, spoke about his initial hesitation and the role of the organisers in encouraging him to participate.
“This was my first blood donation, and I was initially a little hesitant. However, Antyodaya Parishad's efforts to educate young people about the importance of blood donation and inspire me to do so changed my perspective. Celebrating Modi's birthday by donating blood is a very special experience for me.”
Certificates Presented To Donors
At the conclusion of the programme, Srivastava presented certificates to the blood donors. The organisers said the certificates were particularly significant for first-time donors and would encourage them to participate in social service activities in the future.
The Antyodaya Parishad’s Gen Z Wing said the initiative was aimed at making young people active participants in social service rather than merely spectators at events. The organisers also expressed gratitude to the blood donors, medical team, IMA officials and volunteers who contributed to the programme.
