Wife of Covid victim continues food distribution initiative among needy

Nandita Sinha, wife of Kajal Sinha, the main patron of the Khardah Sanskriti Mancha, a social outfit in North 24-Parganas, who died of Covid during the eight-phase Bengal polls, distributes food among the needy.

Sinha, a Trinamul candidate from Khardah, and his aides had started this much-needed service during the Covid-induced lockdown.

After his demise, his wife and followers have carried on with the initiative of distributing food among the poor by running community kitchens.

“These (lockdown-like) restrictions have created hardship for the poor by robbing them of livelihood opportunities...We are trying to help them by providing food packets to at least 1,200 people belonging to the marginalised sections (in a day),” said Nandita.
