In December 2025, the Vivek Sanjivani unit of the Ramakrishna Mission Home of Service, Varanasi, implemented a targeted nutritional support initiative to aid patients managing chronic health conditions.

The drive focused on providing Daliya (cracked wheat), known for its complex carbohydrates and fiber, and Soya Chunks, a vital source of protein. These distributions were carried out across multiple villages in the Mirzapur and Sonbhadra districts.
