Leading jewellery chain Malabar Gold & Diamonds has contributed Rs 1 crore to the PM Care Fund to support COVID-19 relief measures, taking its overall contribution towards the pandemic to Rs 5 crore so far.

This humble contribution to the PM Fund is aimed at supporting the nationwide fight against the pandemic," said MP Ahammed, the chairman of the Malabar Group.
