A man from Nagaland has received widespread praise on social media after arranging the delivery of 150 pizzas for protesters participating in the Cockroach Janta Party’s (CJP) demonstration at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar, saying he wanted to support those who had travelled long distances to join the agitation.
The protest has brought together students and supporters demanding education reforms and what they describe as a fairer examination system. Many of the demonstrators have travelled from different parts of the country to participate.
Sharing the gesture on Instagram, user Zha Lhou said he was unable to be physically present at the protest but wanted to contribute in whatever way he could.
“Tonight, I couldn’t enjoy my own dinner with the grief that I couldn’t be there at the protest, and my fellow brothers and sisters are there starving,” he wrote.
He said he ordered 150 Domino’s Farmhouse Cheese Burst pizzas and instructed the delivery partner to distribute them among anyone at the protest who had not eaten.
“When he called and asked, ‘Sir, whom should I deliver this to?’ I replied, ‘Please just give it to anyone who hasn’t eaten,’” he wrote.
According to Zha Lhou, the delivery partner responded after a brief pause by saying, “Aap toh bhagwan ho un logo ke liye.”
Describing the response as deeply moving, he said the interaction reminded him that the movement had touched many people beyond those gathered at the protest site.
Clarifying his intention, Zha Lhou said the post was not meant to seek attention. “I’m not posting this to show off. I’m posting this because I want people to know that you don’t have to be in Delhi to help,” he wrote.
He also encouraged people from Nagaland, the Northeast and other parts of the country to support the protesters by sending meals through food delivery platforms if they were able to do so, adding that “no act of kindness is ever too small.”
The post has since gained significant traction online, with many social media users praising the gesture as a thoughtful expression of solidarity with those taking part in the protest.
