Everybody was forced to live within the four walls of their homes. Labours and middle class families were left without their sources of earnings. In such a situation, Agra’s renowned social activist and businessman Dr. Vijay Kishore Bansal, following the advice by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Yogi Adityanath, pledged to provide home cooked meals to the poor and hungry.
With the help of police and administration, during the 70 days of lockdown period, 12.5 lakh packets of food were home delivered to the needy. Not just this, when the migrant labourers of Bihar and Delhi were forced to return back to their homes on foot, Dr. Vijay Kishore Bansal distributed around 1 lakh such food packets everyday to these returning migrant labourers through different social organisations. During the entire lockdown period, he distributed around 25 lakh food packets which is the highest distribution of food packets done by any single person or organisation in India.
