While the pandemic has left many people with no money or food, it has also brought out the best in others. Like the owner of a restaurant from Mira Road (in collaboration with Saqlainiya Charitable Trust), who has come up with a simple idea to help the poor or those troubled by the pandemic. He has begun a 'neki ki tokri' - basket of goodness, similar to a community fridge, to feed the needy.

Muhammed Jamil Qureshi Saqlaini, 45, the owner of Saqlaini Darbar, at Nayanagar, Mira Road, has placed a counter with tokris (baskets) outside the restaurant. He encourages his customers to donate cooked food and put it in the tokris for needy people. People can also donate homecooked food.
