As mentioned before, the fundraising campaign will have two components. 1. We will send emails to people who have previously donated from India 2. We will run banners for readers in India on Wikipedia itself. The emails are scheduled to be sent between the 24th of May and the 23rd of June. The banners will be active on Wikipedia in India from the 31st of May until the 28th of June. Samples of the banners are on the meta page <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Fundraising/India2022campaign#General_information> .
