NEW DELHI: Delhi’s  Health & Family Welfare Minister, Satyendar Jain launched the Jeevan Seva app to aid Delhi’s COVID patients and their families for their safe commute to hospitals and health care facilities in the city. The app, launched in collaboration with EVERA will use electric vehicles as an ambulance to transfer non-critical cases to health care facility within Delhi free of cost.

Notably, Jeevan Seva App is proving to be a saviour in hassle-free commute for Covid-19 patients in Delhi as the national capital is passing through the fourth wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. Many Covid patients have already benefited from the service. This year too, the app is functional.

The app aims to help Covid-19 patients in Delhi and their families under home isolation to get sanitized Electric Vehicles (EV) for their safe commute to the health care facility. Currently, 160 world-class EV cabs are plying on the roads round the clock.

The app provides a dedicated EV Cab Service to help patients to commute for treatment from any point in Delhi and is absolutely "without any charges". So, now the patients with a click on this app, can book a hassle-free ride and curtail the spread of the virus to others in an environment-friendly manner.

The patients can download the 'Jeevan Seva App' through the Google Play store and IOS App store. They can also book a cab from the app after registering through OTP, by entering their pick up and drop location.

Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain has appealed to use this service in case of need. "With this app, one will get access to a properly sanitized e-vehicle which will provide free transportation to nearby health facilities. With hassle-free commutation, a sustainable transport solution for Covid patients is only a click away." Nimish Trivedi, Co-Founder and CEO, Prakriti E-mobility Pvt. Ltd. added that "we are honoured to collaborate with Delhi Government in developing Jeevan Seva App".
