Hunger and food insecurity are issues that the world is collectively battling. Millions of people go hungry every day without eating even a single meal. Some citizens are volunteering to do their bit for the needy and provide them with food and water. One example of this would be Tamil Nadu's famous M. Kamalathal aka Idli Amma - who cooks and serves Idlis to migrant labourers and workers. Idli is priced at just Re.1 in order to make food accessible and affordable for people. Idli Amma's heart-warming story had gone viral in 2021, with several well-known personalities sharing their appreciation for her selfless venture. And now, industrialist Anand Mahindra and his team of engineers have constructed a new home for the octogenarian. Take a look at the tweet by Anand Mahindra here:
The video shared by Anand Mahindra has received over 450k views and 35k likes. The entire story of Idli Amma was narrated in the clip. The construction of the home with the special kitchen for Idli Amma was completed right in time for Mother's day on Sunday, 8th May 2022. Industrialist Anand Mahindra shared the news on Twitter with his followers.
