Mangaluru: The city recently witnessed a unique wedding reception, where three people who distribute LPG cylinders were felicitated.
During the COVID lockdown, the supply of domestic gas cylinders remained uninterrupted, however, the service of the distributors has gone unnoticed by many.
The wedding parties decided to correct this by making an attempt to recognise these essential services.
Social worker Srikar Prabhu, who initially identified with the BJP, is the person who decided to felicitate gas cylinder suppliers during his child’s wedding, which was held in an auditorium in the city.
During the felicitation, the three were dubbed Corona Warriors. “As these men have rendered an immense service, I decided to recognise their contribution by felicitating them,” Prabhu said.
During the same occasion, Prabhu donated Rs 50,000 to the PM-CARES Fund.
Meanwhile, all guidelines issued by the government regarding wedding ceremonies were followed during the event.
