He also wrote about how The Mahindra Foundation will assist those who are worst-hit by this pandemic.

Along with this, the billionaire also stated that he will be contributing hundred per cent of his salary for the months to follow towards helping those in need. His exact words are, 'We will encourage associates to voluntarily contribute to the Fund. I will contribute 100% of my salary to it & will add more over the next few months. I urge all our various businesses to also set aside contributions for those who are the hardest hit in their ecosystems'.
