Pulwama Attack: Singer Lata Mangeshkar to donate Rs 1 Crore to CRPF Jawans

On February 14, India witnessed one of the worst terror attacks in recent times as more than forty CRPF officials lost their lives in the Pulwama district, Kashmir.

The entire nation is mourning the death of the Jawans and a lot of people are coming forward to help the families.

The veteran Lata Mangeshkar will donate Rs. 1 Crore to the victims. The donation will be handed over to the Indian Army on Master Dinanath Mangeshkar’s death anniversary on April 24. In addition to this, the Dinanath Mangeshkar Pratisthan will also transfer Rs. 5 lakh to the army for the benefit of the soldiers who serve our country.

Talking about her initiative, the veteran singer told Maharashtra Times, “Many people in the industry always help soldiers who sacrifice their lives for the nation. Even now, people from the industry are helping out. We have also announced something from our end.”

Lata Mangeshkar has often spoken up about how much she respects our soldiers. Some time ago, on her birthday, she had told her fans, “Instead of sending me birthday greeting card, gifts, flowers, spend that money on jawans.”
