- INTRODUCTION
OF HIV/AIDS AWARENESS PROGRAMME FOR HMV DRIVERS
Appreciating the need for curtailing
the rapidly spreading evil of HIV/AIDS among the highway truck
drivers, the management of the AAUI decided to set-up an AIDS
awareness programme in Association with SHRC, ILO and Delhi
State Aids Control Society. The programme was launched on
Feb., 05. The AAUI receives every month about 1200 drivers
for two day refresher course for fine tuning their driving
skills which provides a unique opportunity for orientation
on HIV/AIDS - being the world's biggest killer. Since the
launch of the project as many as 8967 drivers have attended
the orientation programme in batches of 70 to 80 drivers in
each course. Normally, it is very difficult to collect such
big number of drivers on regular basis for the purpose. The
AAUI has also submitted a project NACO/ Delhi State AIDS control
Society for setting-up a regular HIV/AIDS awareness Centre
at the premises of the AAUI. The project is awaiting final
clearance.

- ATTN
: AAUI MEMBERS
In
order to adopt an integrated approach and focused attention
to multitude problems confronting traffic, transportation
in the city, Unified Traffic and Transportation Infrastructure
(Plg. & Engg.) Centre (UTTIPEC) has been set up by Hon'ble
Lt. Governor of Delhi. Rising to the occasion, your President
submitted a proposal in the meeting chaired by the Lt. Governor
of Delhi on October 10, 2008. The thought behind the proposal
is to render effective contribution and assistance to the
Center to address burning issues related with traffic management,
road infrastructure, road signage & road markings etc.
The proposal was discussed, appreciated & approved in
the meeting. Accordingly, it is now proposed to nominate AAUI
Hony. Roaming Ambassadors from amongst dedicated members seeking
their valuable contribution in associating with this task
on voluntary basis. The members so nominated will not be required
to find extra time to undertake an exercise to identify bad
roads, missing road markings and another snags that threaten
the life of road users. The members during their routine commute
will watch and make brief note/rough sketch of the troubled
spots and roads noticed by them when driving or commuting
by any other means. It is, however, important that the members
nominated by the AAUI are duly informed as to the action on
their feed-back. Here to before, nobody knew which particular
authority to approach for redressal of their problems. The
proposal evolved by the AAUI will now ensure that action taken
report on their feed-back is consistently made available to
the members. To achieve this objective and assist the members
in making a brief note of the spots and traffic hurdles, it
is proposed to bring out a special diary for the AAUI Hony.
Roaming Ambassadors. More modalities are being worked out
with a view to energies this unique proposal to take off as
expeditiously as possible. Those members who are interested
to associate with this noble task are requested to send their
consent to
AAUI President's Secretariat on telephone Nos. 26852033, 41688719
or via following e-mail aaprsect@airtelmail.in,
