NEW DELHI: While the battle against COVID2019 is being waged on multiple fronts, there is a section of unsung warriors whose commonplace but invaluable contribution to society goes unnoticed in these trying times. 

A short video released by Relaxo Foundation attempts to highlight the essential, and by no means small, role of sanitation workers in keeping our surroundings clean and hygienic and puts them in the spotlight.

Relaxo Foundation president Ramesh Kumar Dua said, “Sanitation workers across the country are warriors on the frontlines, whose courage and commitment helps us stay safer. This global pandemic has brought to fore the realisation of their silent, selfless service to the society which we do appreciate and acknowledge”. 

As a token of appreciation, Relaxo Foundation has donated 25,000 pairs of slippers to North Delhi Municipal Corporation (NDMC) sanitation workers who have been battling COVID2019 pandemic for over 100 days now and counting.
