April 25 , 2026 11 hrs 0 min 35 0
  • The Ministry of Health and Family Welfare aims to establish at least one blood centre in every district by December 2026.
  • Around 10% of districts still lack a blood centre, showing gaps in infrastructure and services.
  • The review covered licensing, blood collection, testing for TTIs (Transfusion-Transmitted Infections), storage and reporting.
  • Digital systems like eRaktKosh and BBMS (Blood Bank Management System) are not fully implemented in many centres.
  • The goal is to ensure safe blood access, zero TTIs, and promote voluntary blood donation across India.
