... ਲੰਗਰ Kitchen; act of eating together as one race, without any discrimination between rich and poor, old young, no caste, no religion... Give. Give to the right channels, share the food ! There will be enough for everyone if we can grow networks and share. We will emerge a stronger, kinder race. It’s not about the amount of money. It’s not about making the recipient pose with the donation received, that kills the spirit. Am only putting this out here, to inspire others to do whatever they can. If you can help out even ONE person through this time, it’s ok! But do. At least one ? ALSO, to ask if you guys know any wholesale dealers. Last week, when I was inquiring around, I discovered that the Gurudwara near my house was feeding several hundreds of people a day ! They said they wouldn’t accept cash donations, only rations. ❤️ I managed to procure some groceries, (supplies running low in neighbourhood kirana type stores. The minute one asks for more than 10Kgs one sound like a hoarder, people eye suspiciously)... hence figuring out where I can get bulk deliveries from in Mumbai. Plz help?Would like to do this often! . . . #givingback #donate #helpingothers #richachadha #quarantinestories #sharingiscaring #love #langar

In a conversation with a leading news daily, Richa said “When I contacted them, they said they will accept ration and not money. So I went with the groceries I could procure nearby, which was little, like 10-20 kilos. Now I have learnt that they need as much as 250 kilos every single day, so I am figuring out a wholesale place that can get me grain and pulses in that quantity. Our humanity is being tested. This pandemic is bringing out the worst and best in humans.”

Meanwhile, Richa and her beau Ali Fazal were all set to tie the knot in April, but it has been put on hold due to the novel coronavirus. Several of their guests were to fly in from US and Europe, however all plans are on hold for now.
