Sonu Sood
Sonu Sood has decided to distribute electronic rickshaws to those in need in different parts of the country. He has started by distributing 100 e-rickshaws in hometown Moga. The actor has started this initiative to help the unemployed, especially those who have suffered because of the pandemic.
Sood says, "I plan to distribute in as many states from Uttar Pradesh to Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha and more. For now, I have started with homestate Punjab."
The motive behind his action is his pledge to reduce unemployment. "I want people to be self-reliant, so that they get employment and earn a living. After the pandemic, it became extremely difficult for many people to maintain their employment. E-rickshaws are a good way to help them. I would request everyone to not waste money on unnecessary expenses; instead give an e-rickshaw to someone in need so that they can help their families," the actor says.
Sood, who was appreciated for helping immigrants during the lockdown, will be seen in the Telugu film Acharya.
