Logistics Plus India received ten new locomotives at Mundra Port this week as part of our project logistics work with GE Transportation. Locomotives were received under hook and placed on the tracks using two cranes – lowering and aligning each locomotive on the track inch-by-inch. Cool!
Congratulations to Sundreysh Sarup, managing director of LP India, for being an official pacer for the Tata Mumbai Half Marathon this weekend. The Tata Mumbai Marathon (previously known as Standard Chartered Mumbai Marathon) is an annual international marathon held in Mumbai, India, on the third Sunday of January every year. It is the largest marathon in Asia as well as the largest mass participation sporting event on the continent. It is the richest race in India with a prize pool of $405,000. The marathon is an event where people from all walks of life participate including Bollywood celebrities, sports personalities, business tycoons, and amateur athletes.
As shown here, Sundreysh was duly recognized for his efforts. Way to go Sundreysh!

Like most people, Sundreysh Sarup started running to get fitter and lose weight. He began walking and slow jogging in 2012, and gave himself a year to train for his first half marathon in Delhi in 2013. Since then, he has run about 10 half marathons, as well as a few 10K, runs. Last year, in the Airtel Delhi Half Marathon (ADHM), he achieved his personal best time of 2 hours, 16 minutes for a 21.1km run. The managing director of Logistics Plus Pvt. Ltd is often joined in his runs by his 11-year-old son; they both look on it as father-son bonding time.
