Four other NGOs of Delhi were also honoured on the same occasion.

Dr Coshic also informed that on request of the NGO, the NE blood bank will now provide blood even without donor’s card, on receiving an SMS or a WhatsApp message from Helping Hands.
“I am extremely happy to inform that NE students, even those who travel through Delhi, are now donating blood for the NE blood bank. Apart from NE donors, mainland donors are also donating blood for our NE blood bank,” she informed.
