Jesvinder reveals that some of the patients from his village were elderly folks and they found it difficult to adapt to regular hospital meals because they are used to traditional Punjabi food like chapati. Furthermore, the village was 60km away from the hospital so it wasn’t viable for their family members to commute daily to send meals to them. This enabled them to provide two meals a day and a more varied menu for both vegetarian and non-vegetarian patients. “It’s encouraging because what we started motivated others to do the same – other groups, mainly associations, also started providing food to the patients at the hospital, ” he says.
