PM said rules were followed very strictly during the Lockdown. Now governments, local bodies, citizens, need to show similar alertness. Especially, we need to focus more on containment zones. Those not following the rules will need to be stopped and cautioned. You must have seen in the news, Prime Minister of a country was fined Rs. 13,000 for not wearing a mask in public place. In India too, the local administration should work with the same enthusiasm. This is a drive to protect the lives of 130 crore countrymen. Be it a village pradhan or the Prime Minister, no one is above the law in India

He said nation’s top priority during the lockdown was to ensure that no one remains hungry. Central government, state governments, civil society, all did their best… to ensure that no one goes to bed hungry. Be it a nation or a person, timely and sensible decisions increase our power to fight any crisis. Thus, immediately after the lockdown, the government brought out the Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Yojana. Under this scheme, a package worth Rs. 1.75 lakh crore was provided for the poor.

Pm observed in the last three months, 20 Crore poor households have received direct benefit transfers worth Rs. 31,000 Crore. During this period, Rs. 18,000 crore have been deposited in bank accounts of over 9 Crore farmers. Simultaneously, Pradhan Mantri Garib Kalyan Rojgar Abhiyaan was quickly launched for employment of Shramiks in rural areasGovernment is spending Rs. 50,000 Crore on this.

He said We have seen a dream for the whole country and some states have really done well. We are requesting other states also totake it forward. And, what is that?Now, One Nation, One Ration card is also being implemented. Major beneficiaries of this will be those who go to other states, in search of employment.

– The campaign has begun from MusaharToli and will go on to distribute 20,000 masks in the region

– Different colors of masks are being distributed to prevent the exchange of masks between family members which is a first of its kind initiative in the country

Bihar: While the nation fights the pandemic caused due to Corona Virus, the number of positive cases in bihar has reached from 9 to 11. The nation is under lockdown to prevent the virus from spreading and people are adhering to various precautionary measures including social distancing. In the wake of the same, Paharpur based social activist Sarvesh Tiwari has come up with a creative and effective way to help people with social distancing by distributing masks among those in need. The distributors use gloves and stick as precautionary measures while giving away the masks to minimize the chances of transmission. Having started his campaign from MusaharToli, Sarvesh Tiwari aims to supply these masks to 20,000 people in need.

What is special about this campaign is that the masks being distributed are of different colors, which makes it a first of its kind initiative toward this cause in the country. The variety of colors helps ensure that masks aren`t exchanged within the family members, helping to ensure their individual safety from the disease. For women, there are red and pink masks, for men it is blue and black while the children are being given white masks.

One of the beneficiaries of the campaign, a resident of MusaharToli, RudalManjhi said, “Neither we can buy good quality masks owing to the lack of money, nor we can go out to the market to purchase it due to the nationwide lockdown. In such a scenario, many families including mine are benefitting a lot from this initiative by Sarvesh Tiwari.”

The local youth of Paharpur are extending their full support towards the success of this campaign in the cause of fighting COVID-19. Mr. Tiwari along with his young brigade, is also educating the masses about the symptoms and precautionary measures related to the disease, while following all the standards of safety and sanitation.

“Whenever a pandemic breaks out, the marginalized communities of the society become the most vulnerable. The first reason behind this is the lack of awareness among their population and second is the lack of resources to avail precautionary tools and measures. Keeping this in mind, I decided to distribute masks among such sections of society at utmost priority while taking all possible safety measures, before the situation gets out of control. In these times demanding social distancing, this indigenous way of distributing masks using stick is very easy to put into practice and people are adopting it very enthusiastically.” said Sarvesh Tiwari.

The campaign is not only limited to this. The people from other states that are returning to their homes are also being undertaken free check up by specialist so that in case they are found positive they may receive treatment in time. This also helps prevent the disease from spreading to the other people living in the Panchayat.

The secretary of Nirbhaya Jyoti Trust run by Nirbhaya`s parents, and a crusader in the journey towards justice for Nirbhaya, Sarvesh Tiwari has been contributing to social cause through his organization “Rise Always Welfare Society” since many years now. Sarvesh Tiwari has also adopted the families of the martyrs who lost their lives in 2016 Uri Attack along with 75 disabled children. The son of former Mukhia of Inarvabhar Panchayat, Shri Anand Kumar Tiwari and presiding Mukhia, Smt Usha Tiwari, Sarvesh Tiwari has been actively involved in the upliftment of socially and financially under privileged sections of the society. He regularly organizes marriage ceremonies for the daughters and pilgrimage tours for the senior citizens of financially weak families and has installed hundreds of tube-wells to solve water supply issues in his region.
