Star shuttler Saina Nehwal would donate Rs two lakh for the people affected by heavy rains and flood in Tamil Nadu, her father said on Friday.

“Saina would like to donate Rs two lakh to the victims of rains in Chennai, Tamil Nadu. I am going to make it happen,” Saina’s father Harvir Singh told PTI.

Saina, currently ranked number two in BWF world rankings, is training under renowned coach Vimal Kumar in Bangalore.

Unprecedented heavy rains over the last several days have led to widespread devastation in Chennai and its neighbouring districts in Tamil Nadu.
