BHARAT KE VEER

Sept. 7, 2018

Union government has granted the status of a registered trust to ‘Bharat Ke Veer’ for providing a platform for all citizens to provide assistance to the families of martyred personnel.

About:

Bharat Ke Veer portal was launched by the Union Home Ministry in 2017.
It facilitates online donation
- directly to the families of Central Armed Police Force (CAPF) martyrs who have sacrificed their lives for the country in line of duty from January 1, 2016
- or towards the “Bharat Ke Veer” corpus which would be used to decide to disburse the fund equitably to the Braveheart’s family on need basis.
To ensure maximum coverage, a cap of 15 lakh rupees is imposed, so that they can choose to divert part of the donation to another Braveheart account or to the “Bharat Ke Veer” corpus.
Now, Union Government has been granted the status of a registered trust to ‘Bharat ke Veer’ by making it exempt from income tax under form 80 (g).
