Shocking: Modi’s “private” PM-CARES Fund collected ₹30,000 crores ($3.4 billion) in just 3 years

In 2020, PM Modi announced his “PM CARES” Fund. The fund uses a website with a .gov domain & the national Emblem of India.

Despite this, when RTIs were filed, PM CARES claimed it was a “private fund” & not a govt entity.

Shockingly, PM CARES STOPPED publishing their account statements from 2023 (last 2 years).

Now, using their own annual reports, PM CARES has received ₹30,000 crores ($3.4 billion) between 2020-2023.

Just to give you a perspective, the amount received by PM CARES Fund in 3 years can

👉 fund 20 new AIIMS hospitals

👉 provide 1 Covid vaccine dose to ALL Indians (and still be left with ₹10,000 crores balance)

Now consider this:

👉 Modi Govt borrowed ₹27,000 crores from foreign banks to pay for Covid-19 vaccination in India. This was IN ADDITION to money spent from our Budget

👉 The people of India are paying an annual interest of ₹1,500 crores on these foreign loans (EXCLUDING repayment of the actual amount)

The question therefore is:

👉 WHY did the Modi Govt take foreign loans of ₹27,000 crores for Covid vaccines when PM CARES had ₹30,000 crores in its balance?

It is also unclear how much money PM CARES has received in the last 2 years.

Based on previous receipts, it can be safely assumed that PM CARES received ₹50,000 crores between 2020 till date.

It is shocking that a ₹50,000 crore fund started by PM Modi which uses a govt website & national emblem is classified as a PRIVATE FUND.

WHY DOES MODI NEED A ₹50,000 crore PRIVATE FUND?

The apathy of Bangalore’s upper middle class and elite needs to be studied, analysed, and carved into stone for the aliens to discover in the future. Truly fascinating behaviour. Truly a marvel in anthropology!
