Which of the following refers to a special fund initiated by the Delhi High Court for the victims of burn related injuries?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer B

AASRA was the Delhi High Court fund for treatment and rehabilitation of burn victims. A court order in Santosh Kumar v Raj Kumar Karmakar, 24 July 2019, directs money to that fund for burn-victim treatment at Safdarjung Hospital. Thus Aasra identifies the historical fund among the choices; the other names are not that fund.

Current law: On 28 November 2024, Preeti v State brought the Avlamban Fund Scheme 2024 into effect for acid-attack treatment and rehabilitation and directed transfer of the money lying in AASRA to the new scheme account. This later change does not alter the name of the fund the Delhi High Court had initiated.
