The United Parcel Service (UPS) offered assistance to the disaster-hit state during a meeting of Chief Minister Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu with UPS vice-president Christina Struller Da Costa and director Dinkar Singh late on Thursday evening, an official statement issued here said. Expressing gratitude to the company for its proposal of advanced logistics technology to improve healthcare delivery in remote areas, Sukhu said that the Department of Digital Technology and Governance would develop a detailed proposal for the company, based on which the state government would decide on availing the services of UPS. Sukhu said that Himachal Pradesh has been grappling with extensive damage caused by the torrential rains and landslides during the monsoon season, resulting in huge losses to both public and private properties, according to the statement.
