The Kings XI Punjab donated Rs five lakh each to families of
five CRPF soldiers killed in the Pulwama terror attack in February.
The cheques were given to kin
of five CRPF jawans hailing from Punjab and Himachal Pradesh, who lost their
lives in the deadly terror attack on CRPF convoy in Pulwama, J&K last
month, which left 40 personnel from the force dead.
Cheques were distributed
among family members of Jaimal Singh, Sukhjinder Singh, Maninder Singh,
Kulwinder Singh and Tilak Raj.
Kings XI captain Ravichandran Ashwin, DIG CRPF V K Kaundal were
present at the event.
Ravichandran Ashwin earlier
said that he believes the cricketers will have to themselves keep a check on
their workload during the upcoming season of the Indian Premier League (IPL),
starting March 23.
With just a three-week gap
between the IPL final and the start of the 2019 World Cup, plenty of talks have
been going on regarding the workload of Indian players.
However, the Kings XI Punjab
(KXIP) skipper reminded the cricketers that franchises have invested a lot on
them and will expect them to perform so, the onus will be on the players to
strike a balance.
