I am confident that the Red Cross volunteers of Arunachal Pradesh will continue to uphold these values and provide invaluable service to those in need, especially the underprivileged and vulnerable sections of our society, he said.
On this World Red Cross Day, I appeal to my dear brothers and sisters across Arunachal Pradesh to come forward and join this noble cause. Let us strengthen the Red Cross movement by becoming active participants in its mission to alleviate human suffering, whenever, wherever, and however it may arise, the Governor appealed in his message.
