Voluntary Association for Social Upliftment (VASU), on Saturday distributed rations to 300 families in several villages in South West Garo Hills including Ghasura, Purasingha, Kumligaon, Samatigaon, Murikhati, Morkona and Mahendraganj.
Besides ration, the organisation also distributed other essential items such as sanitary napkins, soap, zinc tablets etc.
