A group of volunteers under the initiative Arihant Roti Bank is quietly working to bring food and comfort to those in need across the city. Though not a registered organization, the effort runs purely on faith, devotion, and the spirit of selfless service.
Every Tuesday, rotis collected from Mulund East are transported to Mahur village in Chembur, where they are combined with rice, pulses, and vegetables before being taken to K.E.M. Hospital. At Gate No. 8 of the hospital, meals are distributed to patients and their families through service tables.
In addition to this, on Fridays, freshly prepared food packets are distributed to nearly 350–400 visually impaired individuals in the Nilam Nagar area of Mulund East. Local volunteers contribute rice, flour, and vegetables to ensure wholesome meals are cooked and served.
The group also extends its efforts to Khadvali Ashram, home to many elderly residents. Volunteers have visited three times so far, serving meals and providing essential items such as medicines whenever needed.
While the initiative does not operate under formal structures or official letterheads, its growing network of volunteers and supporters continues to sustain regular food distribution drives and other charitable activities. Through their compassion and care, the Arihant Roti Bank is touching countless lives every day.
