At a time when fulfilling basic needs is still a daily struggle for most, a trust, named Seva Bharathi, is not only providing shelter but also two meals a day to people for a nominal charge of Rs 10.
The trust said its main aim is to serve the patients and their family members, coming from far-flung places, at the nearest government hospital.
The Secretary of Seva Bharathi, Narasimha Murthy, told “This trust was built way back in 2013 when the erstwhile superintendent of Gandhi Hospital asked our trust to construct a shelter for the visitors of patients. We then constructed this shelter within three months but there were only 10 members coming here then. Now, we are getting around 250 people every day, and 7000 members per week. From today we also started providing breakfast for the people who stay here.”
