Kapanlagi.com - Since a few days ago, India has implemented a total lockdown due to the spread of the coronavirus there. Everyone is required to stay at home, including daily workers who are having difficulty earning money to buy food.
This has prompted Salman Khan to provide assistance. Through the Being Human foundation, the handsome actor distributes aid in the form of money, which he transfers to 25,000 people affected by this lockdown.
As reported by Pinkvilla, Salman already has the data of those in need and has started transferring the money. This is quite helpful, considering many people cannot work because they have to stay at home. They will be severely punished by the Indian police if they dare to leave their homes.

Not only distributing assistance in the form of money sent through bank transfers, Salman Khan also donated to freelance workers. He provided rice assistance entrusted to Indian politician, Baba Siddiqque.
A total of 16,000 people are included in Salman's data as recipients of rice assistance. The ingredients have been purchased by Baba and will be distributed to those in need.
2. Harvesting Praises from the Public
Salman's generosity has touched many people. They praise the actor for giving so much assistance to the needy community.
With a population of around 1.3 billion, some of whom are below the poverty line, this kind of assistance is greatly needed by the community who have to stay at home. Many people rely on daily wages for food, and they are the focus of Salman Khan's assistance.
3. Lockdown India
Lockdown in India itself will last for 21 days since it was first imposed on March 24, 2020. PM Narendra Modi decided on a total lockdown to prevent the virus from spreading further.
Riots occurred in several regions due to the sudden decision of the Prime Minister. Now the situation has calmed down enough and some people are providing assistance to those in need, including Salman Khan.
