They are also Concerned - Hyderabad Customs and Excise Zone's Noble Gesture
TAXMEN are generally compared to Shylocks and sharks but they too are concerned when calamity strikes.
At the initiative of Mr. Sanjay Rathi, Additional Commissioner and under the guidance of Mr. B. B. Prasad, Chief Commissioner, Customs & Central Excise, Hyderabad Zone, staff members of Hyderabad Central Excise Zone have contributed their one day's salary towards The Prime Minister's National Relief Fund.
A total amount of Rs.15.42 lakhs has been collected. This contribution is a small token of the concerned officers of Hyderabad Zone for the victims of recent tragedy in the state of Uttarakhand. The staff responded overwhelmingly to the appeal by Chief Commissioner Prasad.
I congratulated a lower level officer who contributed his one day salary. "What is after all one day's salary; any number of days' salary will only be too little", he said, but he hoped that the money sent to the PM's relief fund would be properly utilised.
