Peeved over the sight of slippers lying unsold with an elderly poor man, a young woman here distributed them to migrant workers who were heading home amid the ongoing lockdown.
Yashvi Modi bought the slippers and gave them to some labourers who were returning home on foot.
On Saturday, when Yashvi came down from her house, she saw an elderly man selling the slippers on a cart along with another person.
She said, "For the past few days, I have been seeing migrant labourers walking back to their homes, and some of them barefoot. At that time, I thought that people are giving these migrant labourers water, food, biscuits, but no one is giving them slippers to wear."
