The Department of Commerce and Industry along with allied ministries is extending full cooperation to help exporting community at all level to overcome operational bottle necks during this lockdown because of COVID-2019

As we all are aware that the pandemic of COVID-19 has engulfed the entire world and has posed serious challenges for the health and economic security of millions of people worldwide.

In India too, the spread of coronavirus has been alarming and is posing severe health and economic ramifications for our country. The Prime Minister's office has been receiving spontaneous and innumerable requests for making generous donations to support the government in the wake of this emergency.

Keeping in mind the need for having a dedicated national fund with the primary objective of dealing with any kind of emergency or distress situation, like posed by the COVID-19 pandemic, and to provide relief to the affected, a public charitable trust under the name of 'Prime Minister's Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund' (PM CARES Fund)' has been set up. Prime Minister is the Chairman of this trust and its Members include Defence Minister, Home Minister and Finance Minister.

PMO is always believed and shown in actions that public participation is the most effective way to mitigate any issue and this is yet another example.

This fund will enable micro-donations as a result of which a large number of people will be able to contribute with smallest of denominations.

Fighting the novel coronavirus has become the need of the hour for all of us.  And hence we urge our members  to come forward and help the nation to fight this pandemic.

Let's come together and help the nation to overcome this pandemic. Donate to PM Relief Fund now.
