New Delhi, Mar 03: TrucksUp has partnered with Indian Oil Corporation Limited to support Apna Ghar IOCL, a Government of India welfare scheme created for truck drivers. Apna Ghar is a mandatory initiative at identified highway fuel stations, aimed at ensuring drivers have access to clean rest areas, hygienic washrooms, and basic comfort facilities during long-distance travel. Through this partnership, TrucksUp is aligning with the government’s objective by increasing awareness of the Apna Ghar scheme among truck drivers and owners on its platform. The first of these facilities is currently operational at Baghola, Haryana, strategically located at 63/140, Delhi–Mumbai Expressway, Gurugram (122103).
The partnership between TrucksUp and IOCL for Apna Ghar will benefit truck drivers on the TrucksUp platform. Apna Ghar IOCL centres provide safe resting spaces, clean washrooms, drinking water, and essential amenities for truck drivers on long journeys. These centres are part of a national driver welfare programme, and TrucksUp will explore the Apna Ghar scheme with IOCL to more cities and highway routes across India. TrucksUp will continue to support this initiative by ensuring drivers on its platform are informed about the purpose and availability of Apna Ghar facilities, contributing to safer and more comfortable journeys.
Commenting on the partnership, Sarthak Elwadhi, Co-founder, TrucksUp, said,
“Apna Ghar is an important government initiative focused on the welfare of truck drivers, who are the backbone of India’s logistics system. By partnering with IOCL, TrucksUp is supporting a structured effort to improve driver comfort and safety. Access to clean and safe facilities helps reduce fatigue, improves morale, and leads to safer roads and a stronger logistics ecosystem.”
