NEW DELHI, Sept 20: A delegation of "Bharat Pensioners' Samaj" (BPS) today met Dr Jitendra Singh, Union Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science & Technology and Earth Sciences, MoS in Prime Minister's Office (PMO) and handed over to him a cheque as donation to Prime Minister's National Relief Fund (PMNRF) in the aid of flood victims of Jammu & Kashmir.
They also dispatched two trucks full of relief material including ration and clothes to Jammu & Kashmir.
Acknowledging the contribution made by the Pensioners, Dr Jitendra Singh said that even as the money and material contributed by them were going to be of immense help in relief work, but more than that, it is the symbolic gesture of these elder retired officials, which is like a blessing or "Aashirwaad" for all of us who are engaged in pulling out Jammu & Kashmir from this ordeal.
Dr Jitendra Singh further disclosed that a fresh consignment of medicines and Chlorine tablets is being dispatched to Srinagar while the divisional administration of Jammu has been advised to be absolutely judicious, fair and objective in the distribution of relief material.
Expressing solidarity with the people of Jammu & Kashmir in their hour of distress, Secretary General of BPS, S.C. Maheshwari informed Dr Jitendra Singh that their organization is a conglomerate of 648 organizations of pensioners from different departments with branches spread all over India and in the days to come, more donations for Jammu & Kashmir relief will be handed over through him on behalf of these different groups of pensioners. |
