New portal, app to facilitate donations to troopers’ kin

Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday inaugurated a new portal and mobile application through which people can contribute money to help the families of paramilitary troopers killed in the line of duty.

‘Bharat ke Veer’ portal is technically supported by the National Informatics Centre (NIC) and powered by the State Bank of India.

The amount donated through the portal will be credited to the account of the next of kin of the deceased trooper against whose name the donation is made.
