Dalmia Bharat Group has committed Rs 25 crore to PM CARES Fund as part of its endeavour to assist the Government’s efforts against COVID- 19.

“Both the Centre and state governments have done an exceptional job to contain the outbreak of COVID in India. India’s strength is its united citizens and loving hearts. We are doing our duty by making a small contribution to PM Cares and will wholeheartedly do everything to support our PM and state CMs in their efforts to fight this virus”, said Puneet Dalmia, MD, Dalmia Bharat Group.

The company is also providing ration, grocery and accommodation to all the contractual labourers who got stuck due to the nation-wide lockdown and stoppage of all transportation.

Apart from this, it is distributing over 100 food packets twice every day to local municipalities and the police to be distributed among needy and homeless near all the plant locations of the company.

Dalmia Bharat Group has also committed the use of playgrounds, guest houses and technical centres across all its plants to the local authorities for using them as facilities for tackling Covid 19 cases. The canteens of the Dalmia Bharat factories across India are also being used to prepare food for local distribution in the regions.
