Indian tennis star Sania Mirza took to her micro-blogging account to slam the practice of sharing food and cooking posts on social media while the world is fighting a pandemic. She expressed her disappointment at people sharing food posts while amid lockdown by reasoning that there are people who have been struggling to find food even once a day. With the nationwide lockdown in India, many people have been rendered without their daily livelihood and essentials like food, water and shelter.
Have a look:
Aren’t we done with posting cooking videos and food pictures yet ? Just spare a thought - there are hundreds of thousands of ppl, specially in our side of the world starving to death and struggling to find food once a day if they are lucky 🙏🏽
