While people have tried their best to hold onto their jobs and businesses during the COVID-19 pandemic, others who weren¡¯t so lucky had to suffer from terrible financial setbacks.
One of the worst-hit by this pandemic were people who were either street vendors or ran eateries because people became too paranoid to buy food from them. The initial blow to their pockets was terrible and even now, some are struggling to make ends meet.
However, there are always good Samaritans around who want to lend a helping hand to those who need it the most. Now, another heartwarming act of people rallying to help a street food vendor is going viral.
A video of a 14-year-old street food vendor from Ahmedabad, Gujarat, selling Dahi Kachori, has gone viral. The teenager, in a bid to support his family, has been running the stall near Maninagar Railway station in Ahmedabad.
After the video went viral, a large number of foodies have been queuing up in front of his stall to taste the delicious Dahi Kachori and show their support for the young boy.

People on Twitter have praised the boy's resilience and also appreciated the people's efforts.
Twitter is powerful. I remember the last year a Dhaba in Delhi run by an elderly couple also got famous in the same way

I believe this the best way to help ...by supporting them (by buying from them) not by giving money directly ????
