Amid the nationwide COVID-19 lockdown, many people across the country are struggling to make ends meet. In Goa, the Goa Sikh Youth has started reaching out to those adversely affected by the lockdown and providing them with essentials. A Facebook user took to social media to write about their experience after having visited the initiative by Goa Sikh Community.
