A noble thought

 

 

Prasoon Majumdar has rightly summed up that when more than 50% of the people go to bed every night on an empty stomach, the idea of making the best use of food lying untouched deserves utmost praise (TSI, Aug 9-15). In this regard, the managements of hotels, restaurants can tie-up with social and welfare organisations, orphanages and homes for the underprivileged to distribute food to the needy; it will bring a smile on the hungry faces. The PM can also direct the Ministry of Social and Empowerment to devise a method to channelise the huge amount lying dormant and unclaimed in banks and financial institutions for various reasons for the welfare of have-nots.
