Consider ellipses $E_{k}: kx^{2} + k^{2}y^{2} = 1$,for $k = 1, 2, \ldots, 20$. Let $C_{k}$ be the circle which touches the four chords joining the end points (one on the minor axis and another on the major axis) of the ellipse $E_{k}$. If $r_{k}$ is the radius of the circle $C_{k}$,then the value of $\sum_{k=1}^{20} \frac{1}{r_{k}^{2}}$ is $.......$.
