As reported by PTI, the spinner also said, “We are distributing 5kg of rice, flour, oil and other essential cooking ingredients. This endeavour will continue for the time being. I am still very attached to Jalandhar as I divide my time between Mumbai and Jalandhar. A part of me resides there and I can’t see my own people suffer. Cricket has given me a lot and this is the least I could do.”

“I wanted to ensure that if I am able to help, it should reach people directly and thanks to Punjab Police and my childhood friends, we have started off well. But a lot of work still needs to be done,” added Harbhajan.

This is really a great gesture towards them who have suffered badly due to this virus.
