As the new coronavirus strain wreaked havoc in the UK, the Govt there immediately sealed all international borders. France too did the same, and the highways were locked.
More than 1000 truck drivers found themselves stranded at Kent, which is a border town, leading to France. 48 hours had passed, and the truckers were distressed, with no food, no water, and no updates.
At around 12 in noon yesterday, the local Gurudwara received distressed calls from the truck drivers for help.
By 3PM, the Gravesend Gurdwara had prepared record 800+ meals, and distributed them to the truck drivers.
The local media has termed this gesture as magical and divine, as within 3 hours, more than 1000 truckers were fed with steaming hot chickpea curries and mushroom and pasta dishes.
I don't know the definition of religion, but whatever it is, this gesture and humanitarian aid exhibited by the Gravesend Gurdwara is very close to that.
*More power to the Sikhs globally Salute to this community* 💐💐
