Mangalore, Feb 15: A blood donation camp was held at M V Shetty Trust College auditorium, organized by the volunteers of the National Service Scheme (NSS) of the college on Saturday February 14.
 
Inaugurating the camp, Dr S Ramananda Shetty, vice-chancellor, Rajiv Gandhi University Health Sciences, said that blood is needed for every human being when in crisis. He said that caste or creed doesn’t matter when donating blood.

“Classroom teaching confined to the four walls and only from text books is not enough. But students have to mingle with the community to know the problems faced by people and serve them”, he emphasized. Dr Shetty was felicitated on the occasion.
 
Dr Sucharita Rao, blood bank officer, Government Wenlock Hospital, and Prof Chandrashekar Shetty were present on the occasion. Dr Ramgopal Shetty, founder secretary of the trust, presided over the function.
