The definition of fuel in Oxford dictionary as material that is used to produce heat or power is quite explanatory. It clearly hints at the importance of fuel and how the world would come to a standstill in its absence. The endeavour of a little-known startup called Repos Energy to deliver fuel at the doorstep of those who need it to run their machines -- CVs, tractors, etc., assumes importance in this context. On May 01, 2020, the company kicked off an initiative to deliver diesel fuel to the doorstep of farmers in Pune district for their farm equipment. In five talukas of Pune district, Repos Energy’s four mobile petrol pumps (bowsers) dispensed diesel to over 10,000 farmers in a brief span of 18 days. It pressed into service truck (on Tata Ultra 1014 chassis) bowsers to support the farmers during the lockdown, and against the backdrop of the fast approaching sowing season.
