The longest Pan India drive by a paraplegic started on September 22 and has crossed various cities - Bangalore, Belgaum, Pune, Mumbai and Indore, and finally reached Udaipur on 27th night.

Today, Deepa Malik reached the famous City Palace, where Mrs. Lata Dubey from IM4 India greeted her. Several special children were also their to welcome and support her one-off a kind initiative.

Arvind Singh Mewar, the custodian of Mewar Dynasty, flaged-off Deepa Malik's ride from the City Palace. Now, the Journey move towards the second last destination, Jaipur, where Mr. Amit Jain and Mr. Anurag Jain- founders CarDekho will greet and flag-off the convoy.

A very unique and highly inspiring drive is supported by many organisations across the nation. Renault played an important role in Deepa Malik's epic journey, which supported and sponsored the entire drive, showing its commitment towards corporate social responsibility. A group of students from Sathyabama University provided a modified Duster, which is specifically developed for Malik, where all the controls are operated by hand.

Covering 7 cities so far, the epic trail will reach the final destination, Gurgaon on 29th September. This is all what we have for now, stay tuned to CarDekho for more updates on the same.
