Amid the ongoing Armenia-Azerbaijan conflict over the disputed region of Nagorno-Karabakh with several families fleeing their homes and moving to the capital city of Yerevan, an Indian family in Armenia has pledged to help the refugees from the border areas by providing free meals. Living in Armenia reportedly for the last six years, Parvez Ali Khan, a 47-year-old man hailing from Punjab ran ‘Indian Mehak Restaurant & Bar’ in Yerevan.

However, in the wake of the chaos that has injured thousands of civilians, he along with his entire family stepped up to offer help to the affected people in any way they could. As per the social media posts on the official Facebook account of the restaurant, from cooking and packaging to delivery, Indian Mehal Restaurant & Bar is “happy to help the beautiful people”.
