Angul, August 5, 2026: To honour the legacy of Shri O.P. Jindal Ji (Bauji), the visionary founder of the O.P. Jindal Group, employees along with their family members of Jindal Steel and its stakeholders voluntarily participated in a blood donation camp organised at Hostel-3, Jindal Nagar, Angul. The camp was inaugurated by Mr. V.R. Sharma, Managing Director, Jindal Steel, in the presence of Mr. Damodar Mittal, Executive Director – Projects, Yoga Guru Swami Satyabindu Saraswati, Dr. Satyabrata Patjoshi, In-charge, Odisha Blood Bank, DHH Angul, and other dignitaries.
Speaking to media, Mr. V.R. Sharma said, “Organising blood donation camps at regular intervals reflects the Jindal Group’s commitment to serving society. Blood cannot be manufactured artificially; it can only be donated by one human being to save another. We encourage the younger generation to donate blood regularly. Every healthy man and woman should donate blood at least once or twice a year. We particularly appeal to those below the age of 40 to donate twice annually and become active partners in this noble cause of saving lives.”
Mr. Sharma also felicitated regular blood donors for their consistent contribution to the blood donation drives organised by Jindal Foundation.
On the occasion, Mr. Damodar Mittal was also felicitated for his continued participation in every blood donation camp organised by the Foundation. Expressing his gratitude, he said, “It gives me immense satisfaction to contribute to society, especially the people of Angul, through blood donation. I am proud that, as one of the district’s leading organisations, we have voluntarily contributed more than 10,000 units of blood over the years. I sincerely thank all the volunteers who have supported this humanitarian initiative.”
The voluntary blood donation camp, organised by Jindal Foundation in collaboration with Odisha Blood Bank, DHH Angul, collected 460 units of blood, which will help save many precious lives.
