Gurugram: Gurugram-based IT company Inter Soft has contributed Rs 36 lakh under its corporate social responsibility (CSR) fund to support the revival of the Saraswati river in Haryana. The donation was made to the Saraswati Heritage Development Board through Haryana chief minister Nayab Singh Saini.
Sandeep Passey, managing director of Inter Soft, formally handed over the cheque to the chief minister, who passed it on to Dhuman Singh Kirmich, vice chairperson of the Saraswati Development Board.
Noting the contribution, the chief minister said such initiatives reflect the growing participation of the private sector in preserving Haryana's cultural and historical legacy. He emphasised that reviving the Saraswati river remains a top priority for the state government, with consistent efforts underway to restore it.
Saini added, “Along with development, the govt is equally focused on reviving and preserving its cultural heritage for future generations. The involvement of citizens and private organisations in the Saraswati river revival project sets an inspiring example of collaborative efforts.”
This marks the second time Inter Soft has contributed CSR funds to a Haryana government project in the past three years, following a donation in 2023 during the previous administration.
“Given the pace of the project and the results achieved by the board so far, we are hopeful of a long association with the board for this project,” Passey said.
Deputy chairperson of the Saraswati Heritage Development Board, Dhuman Singh Kirmach, and advisor of the foreign cooperation department, Pawan Choudhary, were also present at the occasion.
