Nagpur: The Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) organized a blood donation camp on Sunday to pay homage to the 40 CRPF Jawans martyred in the February 14, 2019 Pulwama attack, at the city’s Lata Mangeshkar Hospital in Hingna Road.
Mayor Dayashankar Tiwari inaugurated the camp by lighting the lamp in front of a huge hoarding with the photographs of the jawans martyred in the Pulwama attack.Deputy inspector general of police Prashant Jambhulkar, commandant Subhash Chander, Lata Mangeshkar Hospital dean Dr Kajal Mitra, senior CRPF officers, Jawans and family members were present on the occasion.
Tiwari said, “Though we cannot compensate for the loss of the jawans martyred, this blood donation camp would be a small tribute to them.” Chander added that CRPF organized around 100 such camps across the country.
Mitra provided all the necessary support to CRPF for the camp.
Jambhulkar said it was planned that 40 CRPF jawans would donated their blood during the camp, but the number rose substantially in respect for the martyred.
