Making an important contribution in Punjab government's fight against corona virus, the Punjab and Sindh Bank's Rural Self Employment Training Institute (R SETI) has taken up the task of making 5000 masks and donating the same to district administration Moga for further distribution and use.The R SETI Director Mr Vikas Dadhwal said that Punjab and Sindh Bank runs R SETIs at Moga, Ludhiana and Faridkot. All the three districts have been asked to create 5000 masks each. The R SETI Moga has entrusted this task to a group of 10 women aged 20 to 45 years, who had earlier taken training for stitching clothes from the R SETI center.Giving them raw material and teaching them the correct method of making masks at center, complete care was taken to maintain social distance. Also the center has distributed material to the women and asked them to make masks at their homes itself. "Each woman would be making 50 masks a day. All the 5000 masks will be ready in 10 days," he said. The women making these masks belong to villages Dhalle ke, Dunne ke, old Moga and city area. Though as of now women are working voluntarily, the R SETI center plans to give them honorarium on completion of work.Once stitched, all 5000 masks will be deposited to the office of Deputy Commissioner from where they will be sent to civil hospital to be sanitized and further distributed.
