The trust manages a prominent temple in the city dedicated to Lord Hanuman.
The trust’s secretary Acharya Kishore Kunal was quoted as saying that their donation is aimed at strengthening the state in its efforts to contain the outbreak as well as providing food for the poor.
The temple trust has also assured that it is also ready to help the administration in other ways to ensure adequate for the poor and the needy.
