As part of its Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) initiatives, the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) is taking a number of measures during the ongoing lockdown to reach out to the personnel who are extending their services to combat the Covid 19 pandemic.
Food distribution drives have been organised at areas such as Nigambodh Ghat, Bangla Sahib and Yamuna Bank and Garhi Mandu to provide support to those in need. More such drives will be organised in the days to come.
Delhi Metro, in association with one of its vendors Space Tele is also reaching out to the Covid Warriors mainly the Delhi Police personnel deployed at 70 barricades and manning PCRs. DMRC is serving such staff with masks, sanitizers and some food items like biscuits and juices etc.
