The Story in Brief
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Saturday launched the second edition of the ‘Sindoor Army Maha-Blood Donation Yatra’ in Delhi.

The aim, he said, is to ensure no soldier injured in service faces a blood shortage. The initiative brings citizens together to donate blood for the armed forces.

The real test will be whether military hospitals report a measurable drop in blood shortages after this drive. Will the government release those figures?
