Jamshedpur: A blood donation camp was organised at DBMS College campus by the Rotaract Club, with enthusiastic participation from students and staff.

Principal Dr. Joohi Samarpita motivated B.Ed. students to come forward and contribute to the cause. During the camp, haemoglobin levels and blood pressure of teachers and students were also checked.
