What happens when more than a billion people in a country are asked to stay at home to practise ‘social distancing’? India has been witnessing this time of distress over the past few weeks — with loss of jobs, loss of livelihoods, loss of homes, loss of access to food and so much more for lakhs of people.

n

However, in these troubled times, there has been something extremely overwhelming that the country has witnessed – the response of citizens from all quarters of society. A response that showed people putting humanity before all else to help out and fight their crisis in their own ways.

n

From raising funds for the underprivileged, arranging for daily essentials for the elderly, setting up virtual classes for kids, helping people with mental health issues manoeuvre these times and more — people are setting unique examples of compassion without stepping out of their homes and while maintaining social distance.

A Wrong Call Gone Right

n

Take for instance Aarti Madhusudan, a Chennai resident who is ensuring that migrant labourers and daily wage earners do not starve. Her work began on 1 April with a wrong number from a labourer stuck almost 300 kilometres away in Hosur.

n

“The person on the other side spoke in a desperate voice. He told me that he got my number as a government helpline number and that he is a labourer from Jharkhand. He hadn’t eaten in two days and didn’t know what to do. Though surprised at the call, the tremor in his voice made me take a call for action,”

n

The anonymous calls continued and Aarti decided to help them with food essentials. She banked on her social media presence and asked people to help the workers. It has been less than a week and she has already supplied food to more than 217 labourers in and around Chennai.
