Maniesh Paul (in black) donates food kits to the BMC staff

In mid-May, Cyclone Tauktae not only wreaked havoc in Mumbai but also brought tonnes of trash - that had been callously thrown in the sea over the years - back to its beaches. In the following days, the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) workers cleared over 153 metric tonnes of garbage from the beaches. Maniesh Paul, in a mark of support, donated an undisclosed amount to the selfless workers who cleaned up the nine beaches, including Juhu, Versova, Mahim, and Girgaon. Not only that, the actor-host provided the team with ration kits that included a month's supply of rice, lentils and other essentials.

Chinu Kwatra of Khushiyaan Foundation that organised the donation drive, shares, "It is heartening to witness people like Maniesh coming forward to help the BMC safai karamcharis, who had been toiling hard on the beaches to clear up the waste spewed by the sea. He provided ration kits to the families as a mark of respect and admiration for their hard work towards society."
