TripuraheraldBlood donation is the greatest donation. The way different clubs and social organizations have come forward to eliminate blood shortage in the state is highly commendable, said Chief Minister of Tripura Dr.Manik Saha.
Addressing in a blood donation camp organized by Vivekananda Sangha at College Tilla Chief Minister Dr.Manik Saha on Sunday appealed to the residents of the State to donate blood in order to save lives. “Donating blood is an act of solidarity. Join the effort and save lives”. Each unit of blood donated is separated into four major components -platelets, plasma, red blood cells and white blood cells which can be used to save four lives, he said.
It takes just a few minutes to donate blood, with each unit of blood donated being used to save four lives. We can segregate blood components these days and one unit is used to save lives. Many a time blood is not easily available to people in emergency situations. People need to understand the importance of blood donation and there is no harm in donating it. Donation is the lone source of blood. So, to save life, blood needs to be donated, the chief minister said.
“If we donate blood, it would not just help the patients but our own bodies as well. Donation of blood is like servicing one’s own system as it helps your body form new blood more often and so become more robust”. There is no alternative of blood. The demand of blood could only be met through voluntary blood donation, he said, adding that one can save a precious life by donating blood.
During the blood donation camp a cheque of Rs 10,001 was handed over to the Chief Minister’s Relief Fund on behalf of the club.
Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) State President Rajib Bhattacharjee and others were present in the blood donation camp.

Some young people are taking their lives to the brink of extinction, like heroin and brown sugar. Being addicted to drugs, they are also involved in various anti-social activities. Unable to raise money for drugs, some are organizing thefts at various homes and shops, which has led to an increase in thefts.
However, Chief Minister Dr. Manik Saha has called on Tripura to get rid of drugs. Police are seizing crores worth of heroin, brown sugar and arresting traffickers, but the real kingpins remain out of reach, which is why the state is not moving towards a drug-free state despite so many anti-drug campaigns.
A case has been registered under the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances (NDPS) Act in this regard and we have started investigation. He will be produced before the court on June 05, said cops.

TripuraheraldIn one of its kind, a farmer of Tripura’s Gandacherra subdivision has succeeded in growing one of the costliest kinds of mango in the world. This mango, known as Miyazaki Mango, is sold in the market at the rate of lakhs of rupees per kg. Not only that the farmer has also succeeded in growing many species of other foreign mangoes such as King of Chakapat, Chiangmai, Nem Dokmai, Rangui, Banana Mango, Black Stone, ‘Hari Bhanga’, Burmese Kungjai, Katimon , Amra Palli etc. Fruit traders from different parts of the state are already flocking to Gandacherra sub-division to buy mangoes.
The farmer said that he had been passionate about cultivating fruits since his childhood. “The plants need to be taken care of like children” and if i get some support from the government then i can grow more species of foreign mangoes, the farmer mentioned.
The farmer said that if he gets some support from the government he can grow more mangoes. Gandacherra is now all set to top the state in terms of mango cultivation. If this continues Gandacherra will emerge as the major mango centre of Tripura and even in northeast with separate brands to the economic benefits of tribal farmers there.
The Miyazaki mango, considered one of the most expensive fruits in the world. The variety is rich in a number of antioxidants, beta-carotene and folic acid. The Miyazaki mango is also believed to prevent cancer, heat stroke, boost immunity and is beneficial for the skin.

Tripuraherald“Though science and technology have developed to a great extent, no person has succeeded in finding an alternative or a substitute for blood. Hence, the blood is very precious,” opined Minister for Power, Agriculture & Farmer’s Welfare and Election Department Ratan Lal Nath.
He was speaking after inaugurating a voluntary blood donation camp organized by Dipanjali at Red Cross Bhavan Hall, Agartala on Thursday. People can survive with one eye, one kidney but people cannot survive without blood, therefore blood donation is the noblest donation in the world. Every donation is critical and you can make a lifesaving difference, he added.
Standing beside a person in trouble and extending a helping hand is an ideal person. Hundreds of people are losing in the battle of life for a drop of blood every moment, we do not want this in any way. We can save many lives by donating blood. Though many impossible things happen in modern medical science but blood has not been discovered yet. As a result, the patients who need excess blood for some reason, that blood has to be collected from the body of a healthy person. This is why blood donation is considered a great donation, Ratan Lal Nath said.
One person can help another by donating blood. Therefore, people should come up and donate their blood so that the needy person can be cured. There is no alternative of blood. He appealed to donate blood as much as possible as there is no substitute for human blood. Donating blood should become a habit for the mass as blood can save lives. Sometimes, we come across many patients who pass away due to insufficient blood in the hospitals or the Blood Bank but the regular initiatives of the people may save lives, he added.
Mayor of Agartala Municipal Corporation Dipak Majumder and other dignitaries were present.

TripuraheraldA walk-a-thon was organized by ILS-CBCC cancer hospital, Agartala in association with Voluntary Health Association of Tripura to observe World No Tobacco Day here on Wednesday. The walk-a-thon started in-front of the Rabindra Satabarshiki Bhavan.
Speaking to the reporters during the walk-a-thon Agartala Press Club President Jayanta Bhattacharya said this year the theme for World No Tobacco Day is “We need food, not tobacco”.

It will also aim to expose the tobacco industry’s efforts to interfere with attempts to substitute tobacco growing with sustainable crops, thereby contributing to the global food crisis, he added.

As per recent estimates by the World Health Organization (WHO), India accounts for nearly 1.35 million every year and is the second largest producer and consumer of tobacco.
