As part of the celebrations, health camps were conducted along with support from Indian Oil under their Extra Power initiative, at DHL SmartHubs in Bhiwandi, Nagpur, Bangalore and Bilaspur. At the camps, free health checkups for diabetes, blood pressure and cataract were provided to the SmarTruckers. Spectacles were also provided free of charge to those who needed them.

They are the sentinels of our company, helping us protect the goods our customers entrust to us, and our warriors, aiding us in our battle against time to deliver those goods to their destination. On this Drivers’ Day, we reiterate our respect for them, and refresh our resolve to continue to support and nurture them, so that they can, in turn, support and nurture their families,” said Mohan.

In addition, all DHL SmartHubs (pit stops where drivers can rest, recharge themselves and refuel their trucks), including Ambala, Hyderabad, Chennai, Cochin, Kolkata, Guwahati, Pune, Ahmedabad and Goa also held various entertainment and game activities, such as film screenings and volleyball, for the drivers, and showcased safety-related videos.
