| description | Has anyone heard of organizations giving its employees a gift of sleep? This is given to truck drivers in India who drive miles in all weathers without proper sleep to ensure that the goods consigned reach in specified time.

The present case based entirely on published sources portrays a CSI initiative of APML which is first of its kind working for improving the condition of drivers thereby curtailing the shortage since 2012. |
