Support from Canada on COVID-19 Pandemic

Ontario, 31st May 2021

The Manipuri Association of Canada (MAC), which is committed to standing in solidarity and provide support to the people in Manipur announced a donation of Three Lakhs Rupees (INR 300,000/-) to the Manipur CM Relief Fund to combat this Novel Corona Virus. At the same time, the MAC members would like to thank all the corona warriors for their earnest and relentless efforts for the people of Manipur.

It is dismaying to see the death of near, and dear ones and the soaring number of active cases in this second wave of the global pandemic of COVID-19 in Manipur and elsewhere in India. Moreover, it is awful to hear when people do not get their righteous indignation, which a human being deserves after death due considering the Government's protocols for Corona's death.

Nevertheless, we stand in solidarity and pray for the family who cannot pay homage to the demise of their loved one. For this reason, the MAC members have come forward to support and contribute a mere sum of INR 300,000/- (Three Lakhs Rupees) to the government of Manipur and would continue to do so in the days to come.

MAC executives deeply thank our enthusiastic supporters and donors for their generous contributions and make our COVID Fund-Raising Campaign a successful project.

We wish to express our deep gratitude to our honorable Chief Minister of Manipur, Shri N. Biren Singh for considering our insubstantial donation and share his thoughts on the current situation.

Thank you once again, we could not do this without your insistent work to contain and overcome the fight with this deadly virus.

Let us stay safe and support each other during this critical time.
