    Dear Bhakth Peter, Not just certain section, your beloved Fakirji would be very excited as well. UN is not giving money, so that help is declined but why decline when the cash s coming. Might be helpful to by a MLA.

    Gaye 60 crores paani mein. The PM Cares account is not under RTI, No accountability, it does not come under CAG to be audited. So mann marzi jo chahe karo uss paise ka.

    Wow, That could probably buy one MP . I wish donors would send oxygen machines and vaccines directly to the man dying on the street instead of beating around the bush.

    The money sent to PM care fund will not reach the poor. They will use this money to buy MLA's and winning election. Please help the poor by giving them money directly.

    Oh God! you will be wasting your 60 crores by donating. This will not be utilized for what ur donating... There is no dearth of money in the country as in the PM CARE last year have received hell lot of donation and we dont know where it has been used.... May be ur donated money will go to ruling party rather than go to benefit covid patients... Instead of money better to help with necessary materials... Money always will get misused...
