A delegation of “Bharat Pensioners’ Samaj” (BPS), the largest
and oldest organization of Pensioners in India met Dr Jitendra Singh, Union
Minister of State (Independent Charge) for Science & Technology and Earth
Sciences, Minister of State in Prime Minister's Office (PMO), Personnel, Public
Grievances and Pensions, Space and Atomic Energy, here today. The delegation
handed over a cheque as donation to the Prime Minister’s National Relief Fund
(PMNRF) in the aid of flood victims of Jammu & Kashmir and also dispatched
two trucks full of relief material including ration and clothes to Jammu &
Kashmir.
Acknowledging the contribution made by the Pensioners’ Association, Dr. Jitendra Singh said that even though the money and material contributed by them were going to be of immense help in carrying out the relief work, but more than that, it is the symbolic gesture of these elder retired officials, which is like a blessing for all of us who are engaged in pulling Jammu & Kashmir out of this ordeal.
Expressing solidarity with the people of Jammu & Kashmir in their hour of distress, Secretary General of BPS, Shri 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 on behalf of these different groups of pensioners.
Shri Maheshwari said that BPS has also launched a campaign for organ donation and wherever needed in the rescue and relief of flood victims in Jammu & Kashmir, they would be ready to help medically also.
