Chennai: On Saturday, an 11-year-old girl donated ₹2,000 to the Chief Minister’s Public Relief Fund to fight Covid-19. It took N RIdhana four years to save the amount she had donated.
The 11-year-old was saving the money for her father’s heart ailment issue but unfortunately, she lost her father to the deadly virus in February. Undeterred with the loss, Ridhana decided to help the other Covid patients.

“I don’t want another child to lose their parent and suffer like me,” she told TOI after handing over her savings to Tuticorin MP Kanimozhi at Kovilpatti. The family has been facing a financial crunch since her father’s demise in February.
