Amir Khan has asked affluent people in Pakistan to help needy who have lost their jobs amid coronavirus lockdowns. Because these large masses living in poverty are hard-hit by the pandemic coronavirus. Hence, it is the responsibility of people like him to help the poor to meet basic daily needs like food. Amir Khan went on to add that Ramadan is the best time to help the communities. Hence, he is also taking part in packing ration bags along with his volunteers.

“Amir Khan Foundation will make sure to distribute ration and other necessary things among the poor,” said Amir.

Amir Khan supports home country Pakistan in every possible way. Though living in the UK, he has expressed equal concern for Pakistan several times. In what he calls a payback to the motherland, Amir Khan has initiated key welfare projects in Pakistan.
