History
Baba Ji said that the Mission observes April 24 as Manav Ekta Diwas to commemorate the supreme sacrifice of Baba Gurbachan Singh Ji and also to remember hundreds of other devotees who laid down their lives for the noble cause of truth, love, peace and unity. Even though the Mission started holding blood donation camps in 1986, the same have been associated with Manav Ekta Diwas since 1987. Initially these camps were held only on April 24 but subsequently, on persuasion by authorities, the same were staggered to cover the summer months when blood banks in the country generally face an acute shortage of blood
His Holiness (Message from Delhi)
Blessing the donors, His Holiness said that blood donation is the noblest gesture towards humanity. Let everyone make it an aim of his or her life to serve humanity. Blood donation movement of the Sant Nirankari Mission is a glaring example where thousands of people come forward to participate
