Exemplary Service to the society by Patanjali amid Corona Pandemic

   India is such kind of country where Healthcare facilities are are scarcely available and infectious diseases like dengue, Chikungunya , Malaria and typhoid are very common in India and despite many campaigns by the government to ensure cleanliness and hygiene, very little has been achieved in ensuring good sanitation facilities in the country. Amid this coronavirus pandemic originating from China has shattered all the human societies of the world and economic activities, trade, commerce, industries, small industries, cottage industries and employment opportunities have got devastated. Even the economy of most powerful countries like America have got shattered let alone the story of developing world. People feel hesitated when they have to meet each other and entire human race seems to be on the verge of extinction because only in India more than 5500000 people have got infected due to Corona virus and more than 88000 people have lost their lives however it is a matter of relief that recovery rate in India is higher than other countries of the world and death rate in our country is comparatively very low. It is not possible to have every citizen of India get tested for Corona pandemic and it is also fact that there has been no medicine or vaccine available for the treatment of Corona infection and in this adverse condition on one hand everyone is busy being concerned for his or her life on the other hand Patanjali took it as a challenge.

When on March 22 the moment Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi announced to impose nationwide lockdown respected Swami Ji Maharaj appealed the people to co-operate with the government and stay at home. Besides he also appeared on special programs of almost all the news channels via electronic media to educate people how to keep themselves healthy amid corona crisis, how to improve their level of immunity and he also gave online motivational speeches for protection from Corona and more importantly Patanjali services to serve the society which was started at the time of the beginning of Corona pandemic are still going on uninterruptedly even now. 

People were in panic and everybody was concerned whether he or she will be able to survive after this pandemic or not and in this situation first of all respected Swami Ji Maharaj filled people with confidence that by practicing yoga and Pranayam in a disciplined manager at home anyone can improve his immunity and on TV programs he made people aware that by improving the level of immunity anyone can protect himself from Corona infection. The credit goes to Patanjali institute that it for the first time made people believe that even after getting infected by Corona pandemic one can get recovered and this Institute organised Jadi Buti Saptah or Herbs week to make people aware about the benefits of Ayurveda in which respected Swami Ji Maharaj led a vast campaign in more than 600 districts 5000 tehsils and around 2 lakh villages in which lakhs of Patanjali Yogpeeth Samiti workers distributed Giloy and also planted the tree. In this campaign people were informed about the benefits of Giloy and also about the role of Giloy in improving immunity of the people and only in Haridwar, Rishikesh , Roorkee and Dehradun a very successful campaign was launched in which 1 lakh Giloy plants were distributed and earlier during lockdown and also during unlockdown all the workers followed the measures of social distancing and through various online social media platforms spread awareness among the people and even Swami Ji Maharaj also by the means of various TV channels made people aware of the benefits of practicing yoga everyday. Swami Ji Maharaj and I continuously worked for 5 to 7 hours everyday to inform people how to to use yoga and Pranayam besides other domestic treatments, accupressure so that they could protect themselves from Corona. 

Lacks of workers of various organs of Patanjali Yogpeeth family worked as corona warriors and in more than 600 districts of the country sisters of Patanjali family made masks for free distribution among the people and these workers also paid visits to quarantine centres to help people practice yoga and Pranayam regularly and also administered them Giloy tea. 

When the people who are away from their homes for their livelihood or also those who lost their jobs and were returning back homes when they faced the scarcity of food and medicines then lakhs of workers of Patanjali family rushed to help them and when migrant labourers were returning home then Patanjali's corona warriors got information about their problems from various social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook and immediately rushed to help them at various places like Haridwar, Noida and Bombay besides other places. Whenever the Warriors of Patanjali got any information about the sufferings of migrant labourers through Twitter Facebook and other such platforms especially their problems like scarcity of food and medicines then given the needs of these people in mind in more than 600 districts and 5000 tehsils Patanjali Warriors visited their homes carrying rations and other necessary stuffs like flour, pulses, lentis, cereals, rice, sugar, cooking oil, soap, spices, masks, sanitizers, were given to these needy people. Moreover Corona Warriors took information about growing cases of Corona infection in municipal corporation area of Haridwar and provided tractor and trolley for sanitation of the whole city and areas and all the cost for sanitizer as well as fuel for the Tractors was carried by Patanjali Yogpeeth Institute besides Patanjali also distributed ayurvedic medicines at isolation and Quarantine centres. 

Many premises of Patanjali institute were made available to serve the patients of Corona infection that too without any charge and this Institute also provided Haridwar Yog gram and Patanjali sevashram of Devprayag to serve Corona patients of Uttarakhand and for the patients of Assam Patanjali building located at Mirza, Guwahati was made available as temporary quarantine centre. Finance Planning and development Health and Family Welfare education department and PWD minister Dr Hemant Biswas Sharma of Assam also visited quarantine Centre of Patanjali located at Guwahati and he also praised the services provided by Patanjali institute. 

For Patanjali this country is not meant for business but it is its family and by the means of various departments and services of Patanjali we have made available all our available resources in the service to the nation and to serve the people because 100% profit of Patanjali is used to serve the people.
