Shikhar Dhawan donates oxygen concentrators via Gurugram police
Shikhar Dhawan, the Indian cricketer, has lent his helping hand to the ones in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. The veteran has donated oxygen concentrators in India’s fight against the coronavirus second wave. Over the last three weeks or so, the death tolls have gone up at an alarming rate and the people have been straining to find oxygen and hospital beds.
The situation has become grave to the extent that even the 2021 edition of the Indian Premier League had to be postponed for an indefinite period of time. In the meantime, Gurugram police expressed their gratitude to Dhawan for his wholehearted efforts in the current scenario.
