In his inaugural address, Minister Chowdhury emphasized the importance of inspiring and motivating people to participate in humanitarian activities. He highlighted the goal of reducing suffering within the community through such initiatives.
The minister called upon voluntary organizations, NGOs, and the public to actively donate blood. Their contributions would help maintain adequate blood stocks in hospitals across the state, especially during emergencies.
