Shah Rukh Khan contributes 25,000 PPE kits for frontline Medical Care team!

The entire nation is currently under deep terror as the number of coronavirus cases continues to increase gradually. While the nation remains to be on a standstill, government officials have been taking up the right measures to contain the spread of COVID-19. However, several parts of the nation are suffering from a shortage of PPEs and testing kits.

But, Shah Rukh Khan has been at the forefront to provide help, in India’s fight against the pandemic. He recently provided 25000 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to medical teams across Maharashtra. He took to Twitter to throw light on it after a minister in the Maharashtra government thanked him.

Maharashtra’s Minister of Public Health and Family Welfare - Rajesh Tope, took to his twitter handle and thanked Shah Rukh Khan as he wrote: “Many thanks Mr. Shah Rukh Khan for your kind contribution of 25,000 PPE kits. This will go a long way in supporting our fight against COVID19 & protecting our frontline medical care team @iamsrk @MeerFoundation @CMOMaharashtra.”

Shah Rukh took no time to extend his gratitude and replied to the same as he wrote: “Thank you sir for all your help to source the kits. We are all together in this endeavour to protect ourselves and humanity. Glad to be of service. May your family & team be safe and healthy.”

Earlier, the official Twitter handle of the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) thanked SRK and his wife, Gauri Khan, for offering their “4-storey personal office space to help expand our quarantine capacity equipped with essentials for quarantined children, women and elderly.”

Shah Rukh was also praised by West Bengal CM Mamta Banerji and Aaditya Thackeray after he contributed his support to the PM-Cares Fund and had also donated to both the Maharashtra and West Bengal Chief Minister’s Relief Fund.

The IPL-franchise Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) owner had also committed to contributing to the PM-Cares Fund and had also donated to both the Maharashtra and West Bengal Chief Minister’s Relief Fund.
