Muskaan has had the privilege of training Indian Army and Air Force personnel through its Road Safety Orientation Program, which includes practical demonstrations of two-wheeler driving.
Recently, our dedicated team conducted a road safety session for 600 Army personnel. These distinctive training sessions were held at elevations of 6,000 to 10,000 feet in locations such as Averipatti, Karcham, and Pooh. Additionally, Muskaan conducts regular annual Road Safety Training sessions at the Air Force Station in Jaipur, Rajasthan. Through these efforts, we aim to reduce road fatalities and promote safe driving practices among our defense forces who are precious national resource.
