Among those nominated for the board are former CAG Rajiv Mehrishi, former Infosys Foundation chairperson Sudha Murthy, and Anand Shah, former CEO of Indicorps and Piramal Foundation.
The decision was announced a day after Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired a meeting of the Board of Trustees of the PM CARES Fund.

The Prime Minister is the ex-officio chairman of the PM CARES Fund.
