Our colleagues, who have always contributed to the com-pany’s growth with the best of their capabilities are our assets and taking care of them is our responsibility”, said Ashish Khandelwal, Managing Director, BL Agro.
BL Agro plans to take the vaccination drive to other cities as well where its other team members are based.
