A Coonoor resident who owns a café in the town has crowdfunded for the purchase of six custom-made autorickshaw ambulances for the district. Radhika Shastry, the owner of Café diem in Coonoor, said she was inspired to bring the autorickshaw ambulances to the Nilgiris as she realised that the ambulances can reach remote areas that are only accessible through narrow roads, where larger vehicles could not ply effectively. “I contacted the fabricator of the autorickshaw ambulances in Jabalpur, who recommended a 470-cc diesel fuelled version that would be effective in the hills,” said Ms. Shastry.More Related News
