Pad production by small and medium scale units and their distribution by community workers has been disrupted. The government should distribute pads along with other ration to make sure women do not have to use unhygienic materials.

16 yr old Shagun, a resident of Sangam Vihar used to get a packet of sanitary napkins every month from her school. But this supply has come to a halt, thus she has been using cloth pieces during her monthly cycle for the last few months. @ArvindKejriwal@SatyendarJain
Periods do not stop for a pandemic.Incomes of thousands of families have been hit,making it hard for them to buy sanitary pads for regular users. The Delhi government should make sure that along with foodgrains it should also distribute sanitary pads.

Girls in government schools were getting free sanitary pads every month from their schools. But now since all schools are closed, they do not have access to them anymore. The government should provide pads along with foodgrains.
