Lucknow: Continuing with its relief efforts in the Covid times, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has given at least two oxygen concentrators to each of its district offices to help patients in need of oxygen.
Giving this information to TOI, RSS functionary Prashant Shukla said, “We have been in touch with doctors at various places who can help us reach out to patients.
Our swayamsevaks are also in touch with patients who need oxygen. People too can contact our district offices where these oxygen concentrators have been kept.”
The RSS has got the concentrators from an NGO Sewa International. The NGO, which is active in over 25 countries, has purchased the oxygen concentrators from abroad.
Sewa International was started as a movement in 1993 to engage the Indian diaspora worldwide. It encouraged Indians across the world to remain connected with their roots through contribution to humanitarian causes locally and in India especially in times of natural calamities like floods, earthquakes, cyclones, tsunamis, pandemics, etc, which cause large-scale distress and need huge resources for recovery. The movement has spread its wings worldwide to more than 25 countries. In India, Sewa International was established in 1997 as a registered non-profit trust. It is headquartered in New Delhi.
These days the RSS is extending support to people in need of medicines, food or ambulances.
