 <\/p>\n

Pulwama, Mar 05: In a heart-warming initiative during the holy month of Ramadan, a woman has started a free ‘Langar Khana’ at District Hospital Pulwama, wherein she provides free Iftari and Sehri meals to the attendants and patients in the hospital.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Afiqa Ali, a resident of Parigam Pulwama, married in Srinagar has started this langar khana in premises of District Hospital Pulwama where she along with a few volunteers are providing meals to hundreds of people on daily basis.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Speaking to the news agency\u2014Kashmir News Observer (KNO), Afiqa said that just for the sake of Allah, she under the banner of her trust ‘Ansar ul Masakeen’ has started a langar khana from the 1st day of Ramadan.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

“We are providing Iftari and Sehri meals to patients and their attendants, so that they won’t suffer for food in the holy month,” she said.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The initiative has been widely appreciated for its humanitarian approach, ensuring that those attending to their loved ones in the hospital can observe their fasts without worrying about meal arrangements.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

This gesture not only alleviates the burden on attendants but also fosters a sense of community and support during challenging times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Afiqa said that around 150 people have been taking iftar meals and over 150 have been taking Sehri meals at the free langar khana on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She said that a few volunteers have joined her, who are helping her in managing all the people at the tent installed for these people.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The ‘Langar Khana’ operates daily, offering nutritious meals for both ‘Sehri’ (pre-dawn meal) and ‘Iftari’ (meal to break the fast) to anyone in need at the hospital.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cI am basically from Pulwama, that is why I have chosen this hospital for the langar khana,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cOur aim is to work for the welfare of the people and providing meals to attendants and patients is one of the works that gives you satisfaction,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

She said that if people will support her, she will continue this langar khana after Ramadan as well\u2014(KNO)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
