Through the aid, the foundation is looking at helping her mother take care of her health.”
On January 1st, Anjali succumbed to the brutal injuries she faced after the gruesome injuries on the outskirts of Delhi. On the way back home she was hit by a car when she was riding her scooter on a dimly lit stretch. Based on the investigation that followed Anjali was dragged for 10 KM.
Meer Foundation’s statement reads, “Shah Rukh Khan’s Meer Foundation donates an undisclosed amount to the family of Anjali Singh. Anjali, a 20-year-old, lost her life in a brutal hit-and-run that took place in Delhi’s, Kanjhawala. Anjali was the sole breadwinner of the family consisting of her mother and siblings. The aid by the Meer foundation aims to help the family, especially the mother with her health issues while providing adequate relief to Anjali’s siblings.”
