In response to the crisis, ARPD initiated a food distribution campaign. Thousands of food packs were distributed during the lockdown period. ARPD’s Coronavirus Response Team led the charge, outlining specific measures. The primary focus was on delivering aid to the urban poor, most affected by the nationwide lockdown. Urgency dictated that priority be given to urban communities across the country. Beneficiaries included small business operators, daily wagers, transgender individuals, minorities, and persons with disabilities who rely on hand-to-mouth earnings. This collective effort underscored the importance of community support during trying times, offering a lifeline to those most vulnerable.
