Kasturi Mahila Sabha, an outfit of the spouses of officials of Ranchi-based Central Mine Planning and Design Institute, on Saturday distributed around 150 blankets to the poor.
The Sabha, which is over four-decades-old, distributed warm clothes and blankets to the workers of Birsa Primary School and Birsa High School, Gondwana and Recreation Club boys and contractual workers of the institute on the premises of the CMPDI, a subsidiary of Coal India Limited, a Maharatna company.
Sabha president Meeta Saran said they have already carried out similar social activities and would continue to do so in the future using their own resources to alleviate the sufferings of the poor and the unfortunate.
CMPDI chairman-cum-managing director Shekhar Saran praised the initiative of the Sabha.
“It is a commendable feat of the Sabha to arrange funds of their own to help the poor of the society. Such work needs to be carried out in the future too. We should fulfil our responsibilities towards deprived and needy people in whatever way possible,” he said.
The distribution event was attended by Usha Mishra, wife of K.K. Mishra, director (training), and Neeraja Gomasta, wife of S.K. Gomasta, director (training and CRD), among others.
