Building Brighter Futures Through Kindness.
Sahayta was envisioned by Dr. Maya Tandon in 1995 involving the participation of the masses to contribute to the process of road strategies by learning the art of saving the life of a road accident victim. Its mission was focused on saving the lives of accident victims by training manpower in “Road Safety & Life Safety” and motivating them to come to the rescue of the injured. Our approach and experiences have vulnerable road users who are caught unawares in an accident. Their attention gets focused on the Post-Accident scenario where instant help is made available not only to take care of the grave injuries but also to transport the injured in the correct method so that more lives are saved.
