On Sunday, volunteers from the Ukkunagaram Sri Sathya Sai Seva Samithi and the Duvvada Railway Users Association distributed free drinking water to passengers at Duvvada railway station in Andhra Pradesh, India. This initiative, which has been running for 14 days, aims to serve travelers in need, providing one-litre bottles to approximately 216 passengers of the Amaravathi Express during its brief two-minute halt. Volunteers prioritized the distribution to women, elderly, and differently-abled passengers, handing out bottles directly through train doors and windows due to limited access on the platform. This service is inspired by the motto ‘Manava Seve Madhava Seva’ (Service to Man is Service to God) and is organized under the leadership of Sanyasi Raju, with financial backing from the Ukkunagaram Sri Sathya Sai Samithi in Visakhapatnam.
