Data from the health ministry showed India has 23,651 (as on April 30) active cases of COVID 19, the respiratory disease caused by the coronavirus. On March 28, Prime Minister Narendra Modi set up a special fund to battle COVID-19 through crowdfunding and requested citizens to donate to the PM-CARES Trust, which in the future would also provide for related distressing circumstances.

Online live-streaming, has been a growing trend for fundraisers during this particular lockdown which has helped many organisers to raise funds for COVID 19 relief.
