The top sprinter sent out a tweet addressing the Mahindra top boss and telling him that she is using the car for Covid-19 combat and relief work.
The 2019 Summer Universiade gold medallist Dutee Chand recently showed her compassionate side by helping those affected by the Covid-19 pandemic.
The sprinter drove down nearly 70 kilometres from Bhubaneswar to her village, Chaka Gopalpur, in Odisha's Jajpur district to distribute food packets. She took special passes from the authorities in the state capital to drive her Mahindra XUV500, that was gifted by Anand Mahindra in 2016.
In a tweet, the 24-year-old athlete tagged Mahindra, and said she was using the car for Covid-19 combat and relief work. “Today, I received essential groceries & sanitary from @achyuta_samanta & @dwitivikram & began distributing it in my village,” wrote Chand.

The Mahindra Group Chairman, who is known for sharing sometimes funny, sometimes thought-provoking videos on his Twitter handle, couldn’t help but appreciate Chand for the heartfelt gesture.
Responding to her tweet, the 64-year-old businessman wrote that he couldn’t think of a better use of wheels. Chand responded to Mahindra’s tweet, thanking him for his kind words.
The Mahindra top boss had promised to gift a Mahindra XUV500 to Chand back in 2016 after she had shared her plans of buying the car sometime in future.
