Celebrating Independence Day with the Poor Ones

       

"India will get freedom only when its citizens get freedom from Poverty and Hunger"


It’s now been 74 years of Independence. But even after seven decades of freedom, we are yet to experience it in a real sense. Free we are from the hold of Britishers , but are we free from the clutches of poverty, unemployment, illiteracy? Definitely not. It is really sad. A lot needs to be done by the nation and the people to eradicate the same.

To highlight the problem and the matter stated above and as a humble support the members of Lions Brilliance Shantigram with the residents of Shantigram distributed home made food, biscuits, clothes, toys etc. to the needy and the poor ones near the Ahmedabad-Gandhinagar  Highway on 15/8/20. 

A whopping amount of 130 food packets were distributed. Some of the contributors even sponsored Amul Kool, candies, chocolates and home made cupcakes especially for the kids. Clothes and shoes were even distributed. Its sad to see the irony of life that an old or a short sized cloth for somebody can become a luxury for the other one. The kids were so happy while receiving the toys that one of them even started playing with the car, holding onto the small steering-wheel of the car thinking he's the driver. 

At last it was a really successful event and hopefully we will do much bigger events in the future in hope of eradicating hunger and poverty from India.

JAI HIND!

India Fights From Home

"Survive, Survive and Survive" - This has been and continues to be the sole motto of all of us as the Covid-19 pandemic continues to take a toll on our lives.  People are surviving by the mere mercy of oximeter bound to their fingertips. Life that seemed to be big-sized is now thriving on a small machine. The pandemic has once again risen to its utmost potential and has now become even more dangerous with no beds available in the hospitals, non-availability of doctors over phone calls, shortage of basic oral medicines and no signs of remdesivir injection in the pharmacies and with a waiting time of over 36 hours for a government ambulance (104, 108).Even if you get your own private ambulance with hefty amounts of money, you have to wait for over a period of no less than 8 hours in the queue outside hospital; you can consider yourself very lucky if you succeed in getting an ambulance with oxygen. Its a fight against death from home with only your family members beside you. You...
