Covenant COVID-19 Relief
Food Distribution
Delhi has a large number of population residing in the slum area. It also boards the maximum number of migrated workers. Since 22, March,2020, the announcement of strict lockdown in the country wreaked a havoc in the lives of these people as they earned their livelihood on day today wages.
Since then there has been a mass exodus of workers to their native places as they are left with no jobs, no money and no savings.
The incidents of people battling for livelihood, death due to hunger, people feeding themselves from the garbage was pathetic.
Hence, we reached out to 18,000 people residing in the areas of Anand parbhat, Zaheera, Karol Bagh and on the roadside in this vicinity, by providing them cooked meal.
The food was prepared in a hygienic condition by the volunteers who have devoted their time and energy. The food was neatly packed, loaded in a vehicle and was distributed by the volunteers who risked their lives in every way.
The pathetic condition is that before the vehicle reaches the spot, the people ran like swarm of bees knowing that the vehicle has come for feeding them.
