“We went to the police station and requested them for passes, we have been joined by our friends and other people and hence after they were issued we started distributing it in our areas. So those who are living here are distributing here, those living in Noida are distributing there and so on,” he said.

“Apart from ration we also provide perishable goods like bread and milk which we purchase daily,” he said.

Talking about recent help they provided, Hemant said, “We received a call from Defence Colony that some construction workers have got stuck at an on-site and are not able to move due to the lockdown, so we filled up our cars and provided them with ration and other essential items.”
