To fight COVID-19, we all stand united, not literally, but through social distancing and doing our bit to help those suffering. The lower class and the daily wage workers are the most affected and considering the large population of our country, it’s difficult to even accommodate patients and those suspected to have contracted COVID-19.
In times like these, Ayesha Takia and her restaurateur husband Farhan Azmi have come forward to help the ones in need. The duo has given out their Gulf Hotel in South Mumbai to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) for quarantine purposes.
When contacted, Farhan confirmed the news to us and said, “Yes, we have given our Gulf Hotel for quarantine to the BMC. We are together during this time of crisis. We have handed over our hotel to BMC and the Mumbai Police as the quarantine center. Ours is a small hotel. And we hope that in future, the Government should support small businesses too.”
The lockdown in India stands extended till Sunday, May 3. A few restrictions are going to be lifted on April 20 but in extremely safe zones.
