Key Takeaways
FICCI FLO Amritsar Chapter has been invited to contribute to Future Tycoons as:
- Angel Investors.

Under the city betterment drive initiated by the District Administration:
- Children found begging are being enrolled in schools and day-care centres with mid-day meals; FLO will support their medical check-ups
