Spokesperson of the association, Nasir Khuehami said, \u201cWe are in touch with Kashmiri students and in collaboration with Khalsa Aid, we are providing them with every necessary assistance. Since students have run out of money and are not getting any help from their parents and families in the Valley, they are barely able to pay their college and university fees, and are struggling to meet the expenses of other basic needs. Today, we distributed packets containing around five kgs of rice and 10 kgs of flour, along with sugar, cooking oil, salt and some other basic spices to the students, besides some other essential commodities.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Khuehami said, while Khalsa Aid was providing groceries and essential commodities to the students, the association was giving them monetary help. \u2018\u2019In most cases, it is only around Rs 1,000 a student, but in cases where the student is ill, we give more. Everyone here is facing financial issues following the restrictions imposed in the Valley. Students are not able to pay their room rent and are running out of money for day-to-day commodities,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Expressing his gratitude to Khalsa Aid, for helping the Kashmiri students in distress, Khuehami said, \u201cThese bravehearts showed real humanity by providing groceries and other essentials to hundreds of students in Banur and other areas of Punjab. Humanity is beyond communal differences.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
