In this
current scenario, with the outbreak of the COVID – 19 pandemic and the Hon’ble
Prime Minister seeking the help from the citizens of the country to contribute
generously in the ‘PM CARES Fund’, many have come forward with open hearts and
contributed their best. W. Rly employees have also partaken in this noble cause
to fight the economic crisis in the aftermath of this pandemic and help in the
nation building process.
The Western
Railway Employees Union (WREU) is one of the recognised trade union affiliated
to All India Railwaymen’s Federation (AIRF) and Hind Mazdoor Sabha (HMS). J. R.
Bhosale – General Secretary of WREU has stated that in this situation when the
nation is reeling under such a big crisis, WREU has decided to be a part of the
noble cause and has contributed 52 lakhs to Prime Ministers Relief Fund and 25
Lakhs to Maharashtra Chief Minister’s Welfare Fund for COVID 19 affected
patients relief work.
Besides, it
is also worth mentioning, that all the employees of W. Rly including officers
have already decided earlier to voluntarily contributed their ones day’s basic
salary to “PM CARES Fund”.
