The corona virus (Covid-19) caused a lockdown.
On March 24, 2020, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced in his address to the nation that the entire country would be in a complete lockdown for 21 days to check the spread of coronavirus. He said it was not a curfew, but, given the seriousness of the matter, it should be treated as no less.
What exactly happened in the lockdown?
The lockdown brought a lot of families together .Everyone had fun in the lockdown.
But some families were very sad because they did not have a job and they did not have money .
There were many difficulties for them in their life.
There were a lot of people like that !!
Sonu Sood helped people a lot in lockdown ♥️ !!
“Migrant workers have helped build our roads, homes and offices. We cannot stand and watch them be homeless,” says actor Sonu Sood.
Each day since the COVID-19 lockdown in Mumbai, the actor has been organising buses for migrant workers to travel from Mumbai to their respective hometowns.
As part of his ‘Ghar Bhejo’ campaign, he has helped approximately 12,000 migrants reach home, and arrangements have been made for another 45,000. He responds to questions over a voice note, amid what he calls a ‘crazily busy schedule’ that keeps him awake nearly 22 hours a day.
The actor calls it a team effort and says the film fraternity has also pitched in to help. He mentions how director Farah Khan calls on a daily basis to know the requirements and helps with organising water for everyone involved.
Though Sonu does not disclose how much he has spent over the last few weeks, reports indicate that buses cost anywhere from ₹65,000 to ₹2 lakh for hire. Sonu began hiring them at his own expense, and as the word spread, people have come forward to do their bit for food, water and other requirements.
“Initially, I spoke to some of the migrants here. They were in tears, and their kids were in bad shape. I requested some of them to wait for a day or two, stating that I will try to help,” he recalls. He contacted friends who could help him reach out to the transport authorities, police officials and State Governments of Maharashtra and Karnataka to get the required permissions. “The logistics and paper work took effort; we obtained clearances and with all medical safety precautions in place, we managed to send 350 migrants to Karnataka. That was the first step,” he elaborates.
Since then, buses from Mumbai have plied to Karnataka, and permissions were also obtained for migrants to travel to Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha, and Rajasthan. Requests to travel to other states are also coming in. Sonu is eager to help those who want to travel to Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, but complies with the rules of the respective State Governments. Given the high number of cases in Maharashtra, permissions have been tough to obtain from some States like Telangana. “We have been plying buses only to those States that have given us permissions,” he says.
“There are millions of people who need help and we are trying the best we can. I don’t think we will stop till we help the last person who wants to go home. It’s hugely satisfying to reunite them with their families,” he says.
His family members, his chartered accountant and friends have been looking into different aspects of the work: “A lot of small things require coordination, like deciding who travels on which bus at what time. Some of my friends also pick up migrants stranded in different areas of Mumbai and drop them off at the buses,” he adds.
Though Sonu does not disclose how much he has spent over the last few weeks, reports indicate that buses cost anywhere from ₹65,000 to ₹2 lakh for hire. Sonu began hiring them at his own expense, and as the word spread, people have come forward to do their bit for food, water and other requirements.
In the Lockdown Time , Sonu also opened the doors of his family-owned Shakti Sagar Hotel in Juhu, Mumbai, named after his father, to shelter paramedical staff and doctors:
“Health workers are the wall between us and the virus. We are happy to provide them food and a place to rest, before they resume their work the following day.”
It is a huge challenge and responsibility, admits Sonu: “God is making it happen and we have been chosen as tools. There are miles to go and the journey will continue.”
