Food Security
Most of the Safai Sathis do not have a healthy diet and are malnourished due to lack of specific nutrients in their food. Some Safai Sathis especially homeless Safai Sathis eat leftovers (if any) found in the waste, sometimes also consume expired food products, which may lead to food poisoning.
To give proper nutrition to all of our Safai Sathis, Aasra has started a one-time meal program with the help of its donor partners.
Difficulties due to which Safai Sathis are not able to avail healthy food are below
Monetary
Overburden
Family
Responsibilities
Long
Working hours
Drinking and
Drug Abuse Habits
