Guwahati: A recent blood donation camp, orchestrated by the Assam-based Hindu organization Kutumba Surakshya Parishad (KSP), unfolded at the Nazira Natya Mandir in the Sivsagar district.
This initiative served as a tangible demonstration of solidarity with Indian soldiers currently engaged in Operation Sindoor, while also seeking to bolster national spirit during the prevailing tensions along the border with Pakistan.
Addressing those present, KSP president Satya Ranjan Borah lauded the soldiers as “another form of God,” emphasizing their unwavering commitment to safeguarding the nation and ensuring the tranquility of its populace. Borah articulated the sentiment behind the drive, stating, “We may not be on the battlefield, but through this blood donation camp, we aim to stand with our protectors.”
The blood donation event was a collaborative effort, brought to fruition through the joint efforts of the Ratnagarbha Tejaswini Foundation and the Sivsagar Civil Hospital. Borah voiced his optimism that the donated blood units would effectively reach soldiers in need, underscoring the organization’s future aspirations by adding, “This is just the beginning. We plan to expand this campaign across the state.”
In a heartfelt appeal to the citizenry, Borah shared his personal experience during the donation, remarking, “While donating blood, I felt as though I was directly serving God. It was a deeply emotional and satisfying moment. Every Indian must contribute to nation-building in whatever way possible.”
Continuing his address, Borah reiterated his strong condemnation of terrorism and urged the Indian government to undertake necessary measures to reclaim Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK). He also alluded to a contentious statement he had recently made at a press conference held at the Dispur Press Club, where he issued a 72-hour ultimatum to Islamic scholars to “prove the purity of the Quran.” Borah stated that no scholar had responded to his ultimatum and that he had subsequently dispatched formal letters to various Islamic organizations. He further declared his intention to approach the High Court if no clarification is forthcoming.
While the KSP’s blood donation drive garnered support within local communities, Borah’s pronouncements concerning religious texts are anticipated to ignite debate and potentially face legal challenges.
