The Commander, during the handing over, noted that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected more than 208 persons of the community, a decision was taken to collaborate with the business community to provide assistance to the community which is currently on lockdown.
“The community is currently on lockdown, there is a joint service operation carrying out Operation COVI-CURB, everyone is in home isolation and hence there is a restriction on movements to and from the village, with that we’ve decided that we will assist” the Commander noted.
Also at the handing over were Division Welfare Officer, Assistant Superintendent Shevon Jupiter; Sub-Divisional Officer, Assistant Superintendent Alli and other ranks of the Division.
The businesses which assisted in the initiative were A&S General Contractors Inc, GSK Excavating Services, Choke Service Station, Panko Fabrication, Imran Ally & Sons General Hardware and P Ramroop & Sons.
The administration of the Force expressed gratitude to the businesses and encouraged others to come on board as the country combats the dreaded virus.
