This particular image struck him to the core, he changed his entire attitude towards living a life creating awareness among people about the food wastage and the distribution of food to the people who really needs it or cant afford a meal for a given day.

So after the catalyst incident happened to him, he took a great turn over in his life dedicated to compassion and kindness.
Binish says, “Throughout my travel many fellow Citizens helped me for food and water, that I am doing this with almost no money. I received negative reactions too that even a glass of water was neglected once and literally cursed for not knowing Hindi.
