NSUI distributes ration among needy

Amritsar, May 8

Activists of Punjab National Students’ Union of India (NSUI) distributed ration among families of slum areas in city today. The ruling party’s several wings had announced relief operations under the ‘Farz Manukhta Layi’ mission to reach out to people during the raging pandemic.

Led by state NSUI president Akshay Sharma, the union distributed 250 bags of flour to marginalised families.

“We will be stepping up the drive by distributing another 500 bags among the needy by Monday. We had donated a hi-tech fleet of 15 ambulances with oxygen cylinders, masks, gloves and Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) kits earlier to cope up with increased demand of medical and healthcare services due to the pandemic,” said Akshay. He said the state leadership of Congress had been reaching out to masses reeling under the devastating impact of Covid wave by ensuring them food and other essential items. — TNS
