Mumbai, Jul 7 () A robotic trolley has been pressed into service at a hospital here to help eliminate contact and reduce the risk of infection among medical staff treating COVID-19 patients.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray's office shared a video on Twitter, which shows the robotic trolley called 'Gollar' distributing medicines to COVID-19 patients at Podar Hospital in Worli.
