Why it’s still raining in India ??

Disclaimer: The question seems weird is it? I have no idea of exploring the scientific reasons in this blog and that is not intended here… Read this blog thinking about these titles ~ “Rare sense of Charity” or “When heart wins over money” or “True heroes of our Country”!!!!

Saidul Islam (S) was impoverished and was in need of money very badly. That was the time when S came across a newspaper ad seeking kidney for a man called Shyamal Singh…. S decided to sell one of his kidneys for money. But after meeting Shyamal, S was overwhelmed by a rare sense of charity. S realized that Shyamal Singh is much poorer than him and decided to donate one of his kidney for free as both the kidneys of Shyamal Singh were going bad. S didn’t mention this great act of kindness to anyone. The villagers even cursed S for selling his kidney not knowing the real truth behind that. Now S is seen upon by the villagers as a true hero. Surely he is one!!!!!

Nowadays, charity is considered by many as a tax saving option or one which gives you recognition and fame in the society. But at the time of donation, S had none of these thoughts. It was a pure sense of charity. S’s financial situation hasn’t yet changed, S has only one kidney but he has no regrets.

We may not be able to donate our kidneys but we should definitely salute these true heroes of our country.

Amar Das (A) is a rickshaw puller in a village in Tripura. A was already poor and weak. He came across an accident when he was driving his rickshaw. He immediately helped the victim and his wife to reach a hospital nearby in his rickshaw. After admitting them, he came to know that the patient requires blood transfusion to save his life.
Moved by this situation, ‘A’ who was already weak immediately volunteered to donate his blood as his blood group was matching with that of the victim’s. ‘A’ was an instant donor which save the life of the victim. ‘A’ didn’t do this for money although he was very poor and impoverished. This incident triggered the whole village to become voluntary blood donors.
There are lots more unknown heroes who does these great acts of charity without expecting any sort of benefits.

Nowadays the awareness about blood donation has increased but still the supply doesn’t meet the demand. Here are few known facts about blood donation…….

• Donating blood does not make you weak.
• When you donate one unit of blood it equals 350 to 450 ml which is five to six ltr of blood. It is however, replenished in 24 hours.
• It reduces the risk of heart attack.

Donating blood is a great help to save the humanity but at the same time encouraging others to donate blood is the need of the hour.

All started with the staff of an eye hospital in the village educating people about donating eyes. The villagers after hearing about eye donation and the noble cause behind it pledged to donate their eyes. This collective act of charity speaks volumes about the unity in the village be it for donating eyes or anything…
