The entire world has come together to help those in need during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many celebrities have donated funds & food grains for the needy, while young kids have contributed their piggy bank savings for the cause.
So, while the cops from Punjab’s Ropar district are in the field fighting coronavirus, their wives are distributing free food and making masks at home to help the officers, reports News18.
Over 33,000 meals of dry ration, prepared by family members of police officials, have been distributed in slum areas, said Senior Superintendent of Police of Ropar, Swapan Sharma. Also, 800 masks were distributed at every checkpoint by mobile patrolling teams.
“Together we stand stronger is the message that families of the Ropar policemen are out to convey,” Sharma said.
He also mentioned that each family has contributed Rs 500 towards the fight against the deadly virus. With policemen on duty for 14-16 hours a day since the lockdown, their family members are also participating to ease their burden.
“We couldn’t think of anything better than making masks to keep our men in khaki safe in these tough times,” Sukhwinder Kaur, 48, wife of Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Jagtar Singh was quoted saying.Â
In another incident, the Goa Sikh Youth community has also been providing food for hungry people during the lockdown.
