In a bid to celebrate the company’s 75th anniversary, Ashok Leyland, the Indian flagship of the Hinduja Group has commenced the ‘Manzil ka Safar’ Stallion Drive from Kanyakumari to Leh.
The expedition will traverse through diverse terrains, challenging mountain passes in the arduous region of Leh. The journey will cover about 4,000 kilometres and represent the endurance, power, and reliability that have become synonymous with Ashok Leyland vehicles.
The three Stallion trucks display the three terrains that the Stallion has championed for the Indian Army—forests, deserts, and mountains—as they travel over Indian roadways. The first truck will highlight the long-standing relationship of Ashok Leyland with the Indian Army over the years, while the second truck will pay tribute and salute the Kargil veterans, the third truck will salute the army’s brave hearts and showcase prestigious honours bestowed upon Indian Army personnel to recognise acts of exceptional bravery, valour, and sacrifice.
Shenu Agarwal, MD and CEO, Ashok Leyland, said, “The Stallion Drive from Kanyakumari to Leh embodies our commitment to the Indian army.”
Amandeep Singh, President LCV - International Operations, Defense & Power Solutions, Ashok Leyland, noted that the drive from Kanyakumari to Leh is a symbolic journey of resilience, strength, and unshakable commitment.
“This drive sums up our shared legacy, where the road signifies both, the path we travel and the unity that propels us forward. Let this journey stand as a testament to our firm dedication to serving the Indian Armed Forces,” he added.
