CSR Activities for 2023-24 As recommended in the CSR Committee Meeting held on 27.10.2023 and approved in the Board meeting held on 07.11.2023, it was decided to give the Basic Life Support Ambulance to the Hospital in Aspirational Districts as identified by the Department of Public Enterprises, Ministry of Finance. Board decided to give one Ambulance to a Hospital in Chitrakoot (Uttar Pradesh) and one Ambulance to a Hospital in Ribhoi (Meghalaya).
Due to delay in obtaining response from the Nodal Officers of Aspirational Districts and also due to delay in finalization of tender, the CSR project to deliver Ambulance to Hospitals in Aspirational Districts could not be completed by 31st March, 2024 and accordingly the project was extended beyond the financial year with the approval of the Board as per the definition of Ongoing project under Rule 2 (i) of the Companies (Corporate Social Responsibility Policy) Rules, 2014.
Further due to applicability of Model code of Conduct owing to General Elections 2024, the Ambulances could be delivered to the Hospitals in Aspirational Districts in July, 2024. The total amount spent on the project was Rs. 46.51 lakhs. However the unspent CSR amount was deposited with a scheduled bank as per Section 135(6) of the Companies Act, 2013.
After formation of Union Government and on receipt response from concerned hospitals one Ambulance have been handed over at Nongpoh Civil Hospital, Ribhoi District, Meghalaya and another one is handed over at Hospital at Chitrakoot.
