Bhubaneswar (Odisha) [India], December 10: The Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC), in its endeavour towards inclusiveness of urban homeless, brought 230 people from seven shelters across the city to take part in an International Food Festival (IFF) on Sunday.

The urban homeless enjoyed food and music at the event which was organised on the sidelines of the ongoing Hockey Men's World Cup-2018.

"230 people from seven Shelter for Urban Homeless (SUHs) across the city on Sunday got an opportunity to listen to the soul-stirring music of Bollywood singer Shaan and enjoyed delicious foods at the International Food Festival (IFF) enclosure of FEST," informed BMC.

Kalucharan Mohanty, who came to the venue and enjoyed the musical evening and the food at the IFF, said: "The concern by BMC shows that the civic body is always thinking about the inmates of the SUH and they are remembered when any major celebration happens across the city."

The Hockey World Cup, which began on November 28, will end on December 16.(ANI)
