Chandigarh- Making his contribution in the Chief Minister's Covid relief fund established owing to corona virus, the Cooperation and Jails Minister, S. Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa today announced that he would contribute 30 percent of his salary to the Covid relief fund each month until the fund remains in existence. Earlier, in March, the Cooperation Minister had donated his one month salary to the fund.
In a press communique here today, the minister said that the State Government is shouldering a huge responsibility of making adequate healthcare related arrangements besides providing essential supplies to the people owing to the cutfew/lockdown which was imposed to combat corona virus disease. He also said that as of now, the economy is not in that fine a shape and the income of the State Exchequer has also been reduced. That explains why the State Government has constituted Chief Minister's Covid Relief Fund.
S. Randhawa also performed Ardas today on the occasion of Baisakhi for the welfare of all and prayed to the almighty to keep the community in high spirits. He said that it is significant for us to follow the instructions issued by the Government and the health advisories too.
