AHMEDABAD: In March 2020, Ajay Jani, a petrol pump owner in Maninagar, started an initiative to give Rs 2 discount to all Covid warriors – right from doctors to police officers and personnel – as a token of appreciation. “At that time, the petrol price was Rs 67.22.
In the recent times, it went beyond Rs 105. But our commitment continues to laud the efforts of the warriors,” says Jani.
The initiative on Thursday completed 589 days and would soon cross 600.
Jani says that he has lost count of how many persons availed the benefit. “But the feeling of someone appreciating work done for society is much more than the discount we offer,” he said.
