In May 2020, during the national lockdown due to the COVID-19 pandemic, Sood helped thousands of stranded Indian migrant workers reach their homes by organizing buses, special trains and charter flights for them. In July 2020, he organized a chartered flight to bring home more than 1,500 Indian students stranded in Kyrgyzstan, transporting them from Bishkek to Varanasi.
