JAMMU, Apr 4: Chairperson of Jammu & Kashmir Waqf Board Dr Darakhshan Andrabi distributed relief material among the poor at a mega programme organised by Hussain A A Foundation at Jammu today.
This NGO headed by eminent social worker- Rukhsana, organises this programme every year during the holy month of Ramadhan. The relief material included rice, flour, blankets and other daily essentials were distributed. The programme was attended by hundreds of needy people from the city and the adjoining areas.
Speaking on the occasion Dr Darakhshan said that NGO’s shoulder a huge responsibility to serve people and take up impressive social welfare activities in our country.
“Sharing the social responsibilities, non profit private sector plays a big role in reaching out to the people in need and helping them out financially and in kind so that they are also able to meet their basic needs”, said Dr Andrabi.
She said that while as the Govt has taken many steps and measures to help marginalized people of the society, the individual and collective help from civilians also plays a good role in helping the people in need. Dr Andrabi thanked Rukhsana and her Foundation for this kind of initiative.
