The petitioner demanded that at least two members from the Opposition parties should be included in the trust.

The Nagpur bench of Bombay High Court on Tuesday issued notices to all trustees of PM-CARES Fund and the Union government asking them to submit details of the amount collected and utilisation of the funds.

The court was hearing a petition filed by a Nagpur-based lawyer, Arvind Waghmare, who sought the government to periodically declare the amount collected under the ‘PM-CARES Fund’ on government’s website for the knowledge of the common public. He also prayed for fund’s audit through the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG) instead of an independent auditor to be nominated by a board of trustees.

The Union government counsel, Additional Solicitor General Anil Singh, however, opposed the move and sought dismissal of the petition.

Keeping in mind the need for having a dedicated national fund with the primary objective of dealing with any national emergency or distress situation - like the one posed by the Covid-19 pandemic - and to provide relief to the affected, a public charitable trust ‘Prime Minister’s Citizen Assistance and Relief in Emergency Situations Fund (PM-CARES Fund)’ was set up.
