AMGM honors Covid Warriors in a function at Pune
Akhil Maharashtra GiryarohanMahasangh (AMGM) honors 30 Covid Warriors for their immense contribution in Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) Covid-19 relief work. They were felicitated with an appreciation certificate and a hand sanitizer bottle. Working professionals, businesspersons and students were a part of the felicitation group.
AMGM’s Task Force helped PMC for forty days in the months of July and August in their operations in Corona War Rooms. AMGM’s volunteers worked 16 hours a day to help PMC by counselling Covid patients over helpline, helping in operations at Swab Collection Centers in Bibavewadi, Kothrud, Shastri Nagar and Dhankawadi. In addition, volunteers contributed in data collection and management at Covid Care Center at Sinhagad Institute. AMGM felicitated these warriors in a ceremony organized at G.L Apte Hall, Pune on 28th August 2020.
Rajendra Muthe (Additional Commissioner, PMC) and Anil Mulye (Deputy Commissioner, PMC) were chief guests of the ceremony. Umesh Zirpe (President, AMGM) and Chandan Chavan (Vice President, Giripremi) were also present for the ceremony.
“AMGM Volunteers’ contribution in relief work is immense. They helped us when it was needed the most. I thank them on behalf of entire PMC administration. We will defeat Corona Pandemic if continue to fulfil our responsibilities as a citizen like we are doing now,” Muthe Said.
“AMGM volunteers supported PMC in difficult time. I pray to god that we all should not get together to work on same relief work. The Corona Pandemic should over soon. However, I am confident that AMGM volunteers are a phone call away if we need any help in the future,” Mulye Said.
“Right now, we have paused contributing in Corona relief work as PMC administration has everything under control and working smoothly. I assure that if PMC need any helping hands in critical situation and emergency, AMGM’s Task Force will be ready in no time.”
Dr. Sumeet Mandale, office bearer, Pune District Mountaineering Association, hosted the program. Considering the Covid-19 scenario, the ceremony was organized by taking care of all safety and security measures prescribed by the government.
