Commenting on the occasion, Mr. Roy Kurian-VP, Sales & Marketing, Yamaha Motor India Sales Pvt. Ltd. shared: “As a responsible corporate citizen we were really excited at the concept of contributing to the Clean India initiative through this run. Yamaha has always been a ‘Youth’ oriented brand and shouldering this social cause with the highly enthusiastic youngsters of the premier university of the country seemed to be a satisfying initiative for the brand. It is high time that we realize the importance of cleanliness around us and make our country a beautiful place. We believe that more than an initiative it should be a way of life. We truly believe that India being a young country with 70% people under 40 years of age, it is the youth with who lays the strength and responsibility to make the country a better place to live in.”
