Contributions to be used exclusively for COVID-19 relief measures.
Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin on Tuesday appealed to the general public, charity institutions and corporates to contribute generously to the Chief Minister’s Public Relief Fund to help the State government fight the COVID-19 pandemic effectively.
In his appeal, Mr. Stalin said Tamil Nadu was under the grip of the second wave of the COVID-19 pandemic and the State has 1,52,389 active cases, of whom 31,410 were on oxygen support. “The current wave has placed immense stress on the State’s health infrastructure and our people. My government has marshalled all its resources in combating this unprecedented challenge, to protect the lives and livelihood of the people.”
