Sonepur: Many people go for some special arrangement or other in order to make their marriage day a memorable one. Some opt for destination wedding at a lavish cost, some go under sea to exchange the rings and some also jump from plane to take marriage vows in sky.

But a youth in Odisha’s Subarnapur district dedicated his marriage day to a social cause. He donated blood.

Navaruna Debadutta Satpathy of Birmaharajpur has been championing the cause of blood donation as a social activist. So when his marriage was fixed, he decided to make it memorable by oragnising a blood donation camp.

Speaking to the media, Navaruna said he felt he would be serving the society better through collection of blood instead of spending after marriage. “When I proposed the idea, both my and my wife’s families agreed to it. aI think there cannot be a greater achievement than saving somebody’s life by donating blood,” he said.

At the camp, Navaruna was the first to donate his blood before proceeding to his marriage. Many youths and local people participated in the noble cause. Deputy collector of Birmaharajpur Ashok Kumar Bhoi also attended the camp.
