Trapped by the travel ban, the researcher found herself frustrated at not being able to help during a national emergency. Back home, her colleagues at the National Chemical Laboratory worked on creative methods to deal with the pandemic（流行病）. She wanted to contribute in her own way. Soon, she spotted the opportunity. On the evening of 11 May, she came across 50 migrants being questioned by the police. Akondi learned that they were railway construction workers, abandoned （抛弃）by their employer after the lockdown and were making their way to Mahabubabad, 680 kilometers away. “I immediately thought of helping them, noticing there were 10 children and a lady to give birth to a baby among them,” recalled Akondi.
