Under its CSR platform, Hero We Care, Hero MotoCorp has joined hands with Hindustan Times to bring about a positive change in society. We encourage citizens to recognize the urgency and make a proactive shift in improving safety on our roads.
The campaign, which aims to build awareness through print, radio and digital, appoints Road Heroes who take a pledge and set an example for the community.
