Empowering the people who keep India moving.
Every day, millions of Truck Drivers connect farms to markets, factories to cities, ports to airports and businesses to communities. Yet many travel long distances without access to basic healthcare, vision care, or social security for them and their families.
India has made significant investments in road infrastructure and vehicle safety. Yet road accidents continue to take a devastating toll, the human behavioural aspect is one of the critical factor needed to be addressed & Abhay Saarthi is designed to serve the same.
India has made significant investments in road infrastructure and vehicle safety. Yet road accidents continue to take a devastating toll, the human behavioural aspect is one of the critical factor needed to be addressed & Abhay Saarthi is designed to serve the same.
The Abhay Saarthi Program is designed and developed by the Centre for Rural Development and Technology (CRDT), IIT Delhi, in collaboration with Foresight Foundation. The program is supported by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH), Government of India.
The program is built on the principles of collaboration, bringing together government, academia, community organisations, and industry to advance a shared mission-improving driver well-being. enhancing road safety, and supporting sustainable livelihoods.
The program is designed on the belief that the human element is the most critical factor in road safety. When drivers thrive, roads become safer, supply chains become stronger, and the economy becomes resilient.
🇮🇳
Abhay Saarthi supports India’s Viksit Bharat 2047 vision by promoting a healthier, safer, and more productive workforce.
Healthy drivers. Safer roads. Viksit Bharat.
Why Truck Drivers?
India's freight sector is heavily reliant on road transport, with nearly 66% of freight movement taking place via road networks.
Truck Drivers are the backbone of freight movement, yet long working hours, irregular shifts, extended periods away from family, and limited access to healthcare have contributed to a silent health crisis.
Driver health is directly linked to road safety. Untreated vision problems, uncontrolled blood pressure, and chronic fatigue can significantly increase safety risks on the road.
India needs millions more truck drivers to power its growth but the next generation will only choose this profession if it promises safety, dignity, and a future worth driving towards. Abhay Saarthi is building exactly that.
The pilot phase demonstrated that the integrated Abhay Health Camp model is operationally feasible, repeatable, and capable of delivering measurable outcomes at scale, leading to drivers’ well-being and improved road safety.

Stories that travel further than any highway
Stories that travel further than any highway
Behind every statistic is a life transformed.
Deepu spends 2–3 months at a stretch on the Indore–Guwahati route. Like thousands of India’s Truck Drivers, he had never had his eyes checked. He simply assumed that was normal. During a routine halt at the Abhay Saarthi camp in Indore, he received a comprehensive health check-up. The eye exam was the turning point.
Corrective spectacles, dispensed free on the spot, changed how he sees the road. More importantly, they changed how he feels about himself–as a professional, and as a father. Deepu now hopes Abhay Saarthi can reach every driver in India. “These camps,” he says, “are what we have been waiting for.”

SDG 3: Good Health and Well-Being
India’s Truck Drivers remain among the most medically underserved occupational groups despite their critical role in the nation’s economy. Through Abhay Health Camps, drivers receive health screening for blood pressure, blood sugar, BMI, and mental well-being, delivered directly where they work and travel.
A qualified doctor and trained paramedics conduct the assessments, while all records are securely captured through the Abhay Portal, creating longitudinal health records and enabling access to preventive healthcare. By promoting early detection and well-being, Abhay Saarthi advances SDG 3’s vision of ensuring healthy lives for all.

Pilot data from Abhay Saarthi reveals that 55% of Truck Drivers carry undetected refractive errors, with significant implications for both road safety and livelihood security. Through comprehensive vision screening, including refraction, visual assessment, and colour vision testing, drivers receive accurate diagnosis and care at the point of need.
Prescription spectacles are dispensed on the spot, removing cost and access barriers that often prevent drivers from seeking corrective care. By restoring functional vision, Abhay Saarthi helps reduce road safety risks while supporting safe, productive, and dignified work—advancing both SDG 3 and SDG 8.

Through the Road Safety & Awareness pillar, Truck Drivers participate in engaging workshops covering lane discipline, speed compliance, fatigue management, fitness, and responsible driving practices.
Every driver receives the Saarthi Saathi Handbook and cabin awareness posters, helping reinforce safe driving behaviours long after the camp. By promoting road safety as a professional responsibility and supporting driver well-being, Abhay Saarthi contributes to safer highways and advances the goals of SDG 3 and SDG 11.

Netra Vyayam (Eye Exercise)
Look far, then near. Do this every 30 minutes on long drives to rest your eyes.
Look at something far away, then something close — back and forth. Do this for 2 minutes every 30 minutes on long drives. It reduces eye fatigue and helps maintain clear vision behind the wheel.
Kamar Stretch
Shoulder and back stretch at every halt. Helps prevents the musculoskeletal pain that affects 60%+ of drivers.
At every halt, roll your shoulders and stretch your lower back. A simple 5-minute stretch prevents the musculoskeletal pain that affects more than 60% of Truck Drivers and is a leading cause of road accidents.
Paani Ki Aadat
Drink 8 glasses of water per day. Dehydration causes fatigue — a major cause of highway accidents.
8 glasses of water per day is not a goal — it is a safety requirement. Dehydration causes fatigue, slow reaction time, and impaired judgment. Keep water in the truck- not just chai.
Neend ki Zaroorat
7 hours of sleep is not a luxury — it is a road safety requirement. Fatigue kills more drivers than bad roads.
7 hours of sleep is not a luxury. Fatigue is one of the leading contributors to road accidents involving commercial drivers. Pull over when you feel drowsy. A 20-minute nap can save your life and the lives of everyone on the road.
