Kohima, May 31 (MExN): The Naga Task Force Bengaluru (NTFB) distributed rations to migrant workers and slum dwellers in the city on May 31.
The rations were provided by the Karanataka state level committee for coordinating with non-governmental organisations, private sectors, and international organisations for Covid-19, in which, Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike and United Nations Children’s Fund are also a part.
“We decided to extend our help in providing them with our volunteers and help the people in the city,” said Nuthipru Nienu, who is a member of NTFB and advisor to Naga Students’ Union Bengaluru.
The task force provided 11-volunteers to the committee who distributed rations arranged by the committee.
“We were volunteering our services to the people here, on humanitarian ground. It is giving back to the society, to overall residents of the city and not only to the Naga people residing here”, Nienu said.
The task force meanwhile urged the committee to help them with rations in the form of dried foods, on the day of stranded Nagas boarding the train. The committee has given their positive response to look into the matter, Nienu added.
