Coronavirus Lockdown: Karnataka’s A Grade Temples To Provide Free Meals To Needy, Homeless People In The State
The Sri Mookambika Temple in Kollur, Karnataka.
All the A-grade temples that are under the Muzrai department in Karnataka have been instructed to open up their kitchens to serve the poor, homeless and needy at this hour of crisis.
Minister for Muzrai Kota Srinivas Poojary instructed the Muzrai department and the officials in the respective districts to facilitate the same. He instructed that the districts may get the temples to prepare the required food and supply it in packets or do as they deem fit, ensuing that those who have no access to food do not go hungry.
Earlier this week a lot of people took to social media asking for temples that are run by the state to pitch in and aid the Covid relief work. The state has been in a lockdown since Monday (23 march) this week, even before the announcement of a national lockdown.
Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
