Since the lockdown has come into effect in India, the government has begun to distribute food in the area near my school. I have been visiting nearly every day to help with their distribution efforts and to observe this process. Those who come to receive the food begin to line up in the morning, but have to stand in line all day in the sun because of the length of the queue for food. For me, it is very easy to get food at my home; a completely different experience from those who are without food. Most of the time, there is even a shortage of this food, so many return home empty-handed.
