This initiative not only brought together existing members of the Hero Electric family but also encouraged other consumers to support a cleaner and greener environment. This Environment Day, we urge everyone to take conscious and definite steps towards a better tomorrow, today.”
As a company, Hero Electric has worked towards ushering India into an era that adopts a cleaner, greener, sustainable way of life, and to further sustain the impact created by the campaign, the company also plans to hand out face buffs to people at key locations across the country.
