May 20: In a groundbreaking initiative, private firm Team Mates has announced a campaign to provide free insurance to one million rickshaw pullers.
The announcement was made during a press conference in Silchar by the company’s Managing Director, Pankaj Sharma, along with other directors. They highlighted the financial insecurity faced by this vulnerable group and the importance of ensuring their well-being through insurance.
