Actor Randeep Hooda joined a team of volunteers to help people who are reeling under the effect of drought in a village near Nashik. According to the Drought Early Warning System (DEWS), about 42 per cent of India is 'abnormally dry' which is around 6 percent more than last year. Maharashtra is among some of the worst affected areas, apart from Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Gujarat and Rajasthan.

Randeep, along with UK-based international humanitarian relief organisation Khalsa Aid, recently visited drought hit Vele village to provide drinking water to the people.
