Relief distribution during COVID – 19

April 1^st 2020

Seeing the danger of COVID-19 India is facing, our Honorable Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Modi ji announced the world’s largest lockdown on 24^th March 2020, asking 1.3 billion Indians to stay home for 21 days to slow the spread of COVID-19.

But one of the most challenging task during this lockdown was to provide food to the poor, needy and daily wagers who are hand to mouth people. Although government is taking various measures to help these people, many NGO’s also came forward to help the government in the task of feeding the needy.

We at HKFFL Udhampur are also standing with the government in this fight against COVID-19 and hunger. Upon the information provided by Sh. Sujit Singh, DIG Udhampur we came to know about the sufferings of daily wagers, who were camped at Supply morh, Udhampur. Our team immediately started to arrange the Grocery kit for the workers. Although it was a bit difficult to get the grocery items amid lockdown, still we managed to arrange the same. We made a Kit containing Dal, Rice, Mustard oil, Potatoes, and Aata.

Taking full safety and hygiene precautions and with the help of Police officers, we distributed these Grocery kit to 40 Families.

HKFFL Udhampur is always ready to help the needy. But this time, keeping in mind the seriousness of the situation we are working under the guidelines of District Authorities.
