Dr. Jitender Singh :Sikh Doctor in Pakistan becomes a ray of Hope for the needy & poor

     Dr. Jitender Singh :Sikh Doctor in Pakistan becomes a ray of Hope for the needy & poor

As the entire world is suffering from hard times due to CoronaVirus, many people have lost their jobs, many have not received their salary and the Daily Wage Workers are the most affected as they have lost their source of income.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, a Sikh Doctor Jitender Singh from Peshawar in Pakistan has become a ray of hope for the needy and poor.

Dr Jitender Singh forms ration packets at his home and then distributes among the needy people in Peshawar. He said he buys all the items from market and his family members help him in making ration packets. He said he follows all the standard operating procedures (SOPs) for preventing the spread of coronavirus while buying and packing goods.
About the procedure of ration distribution, Jitender Singh told that people contact him through Facebook or WhatsApp. He said he then contacts his colleagues to verify whether the people contacting him are really deserving. He said he then dispatches ration pack to the deserving people.
Dr Singh said he has distributed ration packs among over a hundred deserving families. He said he was also helped by well off people for this noble cause. However, he said the number of donors has reduced now due to which his team is facing problems. He said his team has contacted many well off people for donations for onward distribution among deserving people.
Dr Singh said the people who had previously donated for his team are now unable to donate mainly because of continuous lockdowns and increasing financial problems of those doing different jobs and businesses. He said currently his team is facing some problems as they are doing almost everything on self-help basis. He said the increasing prices of food items are also causing difficulties for his team. He said the ration pack which was previously made with Rs3,000 now costs Rs5,000.

Despite all difficulties, Dr Singh is in lifted spirits and he is continuing his work with the passion of serving humanity. He said he gets pleasure and peace of mind while helping the needy people. He said all deserving people must be provided help without any discrimination.
We salute this #HumansofOneness who is serving humanity during these hard times.
