Women getting trained as CV drivers

Commercial Vehicle maker Ashok Leyland launched a campaign with the theme of ‘Embrace Equity’, under which it plans to train 100 women drivers for commercial vehicles in Delhi. The company invites 100 women in Delhi to be trained on driving commercial vehicles at Ashok Leyland’s Driver Training Institute. They will also be provided with self-defense training which will help them tackle any wary situation at work. Ashok Leyland had earlier partnered with the Delhi Government’s initiative – Mission Parivartan- to train 180 women and many of them have now been employed as bus drivers with the Delhi Transport Corporation.
