Dr. KM Abraham Runs 42km Mumbai Marathon to Support Wayanad Rehabilitation Efforts

Dr. KM Abraham's Noble Cause

Dr. KM Abraham, the CEO of the Kerala Infrastructure Investment Fund Board (KIIFB) and Chief Principal Secretary to the Chief Minister, recently took on the challenge of the Tata Mumbai Marathon. His goal? To raise funds and awareness for the rehabilitation of Wayanad, a region devastated by landslides.

Solidarity from the Chief Minister

In a show of support, Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan presented Dr. Abraham with a jersey and flag bearing the message "Run for Wayanad" during a ceremony. This gesture not only symbolized solidarity with the victims but also encouraged public donations to the Chief Minister’s Distress Relief Fund (CMDRF).

The Marathon Challenge

The Mumbai Marathon, a grueling 42 km full marathon held on January 19, saw Dr. Abraham's participation as a testament to his commitment to the victims of the Chural Mala and Mundakai landslides. These natural disasters caused significant damage and displacement, prompting a need for urgent rehabilitation efforts.

Beyond the Marathon

Dr. Abraham's efforts extend beyond the marathon. As chairman of KIFFCON, he is involved in facilitating the state government’s ambitious township projects aimed at rehabilitating affected families. His previous completion of the London Marathon underscores his endurance and dedication to causes close to his heart.
