Covid protection toolkits for Delhi autorickshaws

Covid protection kits were presented to autorickshaw drivers to protect commuters from coronavirus while travelling in the three-wheelers in Delhi. Titled Rickshaw mein suraksha, the mega campaign by RC Delhi ­Restoring Smiles, RID 3011, was launched by Delhi health minister Satyendra Jain. The project was executed with CSR support from SBI Life Insurance Company, Delhi Region.

Speaking on the occasion, DG Sanjiv Rai Mehra said the project would install the recommended Covid sanitisation tools in autos across Delhi to ensure the safety of people. “We are giving pedal stands, masks, sanitisers, gloves, and other necessary safety tools to the drivers,” he said. The project will enhance Rotary’s public image as the vehicles will carry the Rotary logo and the toolkits will create a sense of safety among  commuters.
