Chandigarh, March 29

Amid nationwide lockdown in the country, daily wagers working in factories and construction labour are facing heat as they are facing challenges to earn and find food for themselves and their families. Rising up to the situation, Chandigarh University, Gharuan, is distributing cooked meals twice a day to the needy in the six neighbourhood villages Gharuan, Batta, Mankheri, Mamupur, Roorkee Pukta and Madauli.

The distribution drive started from the first day of the lockdown and will be continued throughout the lockdown period. The meals are cooked in the university mess and then transported to the different locations using the institution’s transportation.
