Meenakshi says: "E. Poornima and her colleague’s sanitation contract workers in Sholinganallur are my heroes. They have been collecting garbage every single day of the prolonged lockdown. They are paid only on the days they work. While everybody stayed at their homes scared, the sanitation workers dared to come out to do their jobs with a smile on their faces. Poornima, having lost her husband a few years back, does her job with great happiness. She and the rest of the sanitation workers inspire me.
