An eight-year-old boy donated his entire piggy bank savings to provide relief to poor people affected by the ongoing lockdown.

Preetinder Singh donated Rs 7,500 to the Bathinda SSP. "I gave my piggy bank to him (SSP) so that poor children get food," Preetinder said.

"I want to thank this small kid for contributing his money so that poor people who do not have meals can be fed. By doing so, he gave us a message that one should use one's savings to serve people," SSP Nanak Singh said.

Punjab police, which is ensuring implementation of curfew orders in the state, is providing food and other essentials to the needy.
