“Muskaan: foundation for road safety”
MUSKAAN : Foundation for Road Safety is a registered not-for-profit trust committed to building a culture of safety on roads through Awareness, Education, Training and Advocacy. It was registered as a charitable Trust in the year 2001. As road safety is a shared responsibility the NGO uses an integrated, community-centric approach to the complex issue of road safety.
The NGO started in year 1999 in the wake of the death of 17-year-old Durva Bhasin, who lost her life in a road accident. She is the daughter of the founder member couple, Mr. Pramod Bhasin and Dr. Mridul Bhasin. Though a personal tragedy catalyzed the beginning, MUSKAAN is not a family trust.
