The recent landslide and floods in Uttarakhand have
caused extensive devastation. A large number of people have died and
thousands have been rendered homeless.
At this moment, the
affected people in Uttarakhand need help to tide over the calamity that
has fallen upon them, to survive and to rebuild their lives. In this
scenario, ICAI has decided to stand with our distressed fellow
countrymen, and actively participate in the national effort to support
them at this difficult time. The
employees of ICAI have offered to
contribute in kind and on 26th June, 2013, we are flagging off truck
load of relief material containing clothes, groceries and other
necessities to Uttarakhand.
Besides the above, ICAI has opened a
bank account exclusively for the purpose of collecting donations from
members, students and others so that the same can be paid to Prime
Minister’s National Relief Fund (PMNRF).

members, students and others to donate generously towards this noble
cause. The details of bank account are as under:
