All staff members at the Prime Minister's Office (PMO) will voluntarily contribute a day's salary for relief operations in flood-ravaged Jammu and Kashmir.
"All officers and staff of the PMO are voluntarily contributing one day's salary to the Prime Minister's National Relief Fund as a gesture of solidarity with the flood-affected people of Jammu and Kashmir," a PMO statement said Thursday.
The toll in the worst floods in the last six decades in Jammu and Kashmir Wednesday reached 215. More than 96,000 people have been rescued, but over four lakh people are still marooned in Srinagar.
