Ukhrul Covid Stories - A Kora Studios Project
The pandemic Covid19 brought most of the world to a halt and in India, lockdown restrictions were lifted only a few weeks ago. However, amidst the lockdown, the government of Manipur have been bringing home thousands of stranded people of the state in special trains in what has been a comprehensive rescue mission.
But then, came the dilemma of cooking two square meals for these thousands of returnees every day. With all the returnees directed to undergo 14 days of institutional quarantine and the government providing just a meagre 200 rupees for two square meals a day; a lot of the
food caterers declined to step up.
Step in the community! In a small town called Ukhrul in Manipur, churches have been showing the way.
In a bid to showcase how the church is helping the community, Kora Studios, a small up and coming Media House founded by Worngachan A Shatsang and Horzak Zimik documents the daily routine and the works carried out by the volunteers.
