As the second wave of the pandemic continues to sweep the country, a lot of celebrities have pitched in to help. Mouni Roy is the latest one to lend a helping hand to fellow countrymen in the crisis. The actress shared a post on social media, on Friday, talking about Mayapur, the head of the Iskcon Foundation, and how the small town in West Bengal is suffering due to the lack of medical facilities.

"These are uncertain times of the pandemic, and we have to stand by each other and help them out. The people of Mayapur and neighbouring areas are suffering terribly due to the unavailability of the medical facility .. #ISCKON is trying to help them get the medical attention they need with beds, oxygen cylinders, doctors, ambulances, food, etc... I have also tried to do my bit by contributing to them... I request you all to also go ahead and donate as much as possible for the people in need," wrote Mouni on Instagram, along with a video.

A source revealed, "The people of the township along with the neighbouring areas are suffering as there are no functioning hospitals, oxygen cylinders, on-call doctors, and related medical supplies. The Iskcon Foundation is building up a medical facility at Mayapur which will help people suffering from Covid-19 to get proper medical attention. Mouni Roy has donated in her own capacity to the Iskcon Foundation for this noble cause."
