Khalsa College students bid adieu to retiring principal by collecting blood equivalent of his weight
Call it signing off in blood literally. The students and faculty of Mumbai's Khalsa College at Matunga said goodbye to their retiring principal, Dr Ajit Singh, with a blood donation drive with a difference.
The students donated blood equivalent to the principal's weight (68 kg) in the drive that began at 11 am and wound up by 5 pm yesterday.
In the drive called Rakt Tulabhara, the aim was to donate 68 bottles of blood to equal 68 kg. But the enthusiastic students overshot the target to 73 bottles.
