Born from a conviction that no one should die from a preventable emergency, Hrid Raksha is on a mission to mandate emergency response training — CPR, First Aid, AED, BLS and beyond — for every employed individual in India.
Hrid Raksha (हृद रक्षा) literally means "protection of the heart" in Sanskrit. We are a Bengaluru-based, women-led emergency response training organisation (CIN: U85499KA2024PTC186085) founded by two AHA-certified doctors with a singular purpose: to ensure every person — at home, at work, or in public — has a trained first responder nearby.
Emergency preparedness is not a privilege of the few — it is a fundamental safety right for every community. Our programmes span corporations, factories, institutions, schools, hospitals and local communities, covering CPR, First Aid, AED, BLS, Wilderness First Aid and more, delivered with urgency and compassion.
"Cuz every beat matters!"
Every heartbeat is a reminder that life is precious and fragile. Every trained responder is a thread in the net that catches lives before they fall.
The data tells a story of preventable tragedy. India faces a multi-dimensional emergency crisis — and the most powerful solution is already within reach: trained bystanders and first responders.
Every minute without CPR reduces a cardiac arrest victim's chance of survival by approximately 10%. India's road accident fatality rate is among the world's highest — yet most victims die for want of basic first aid in the golden hour. Trained bystanders and first responders are often the only bridge to survival. Hrid Raksha exists to build that bridge across every community in India.
To mandate emergency response training for every employed individual across institutes, organisations, companies and communities — building a nationwide network of confident, certified first responders ready to act in any emergency.
A future where no Indian dies from a preventable emergency simply because a trained bystander was not present. We envision India achieving global standards for bystander first-response rates — closing the gap one trained individual at a time.
We treat every training session with the gravity it deserves — because one day, someone in that room will save a life.
Emergency knowledge must cross every social barrier. We tailor programmes for every level of literacy, language and physical ability.
All training follows the latest guidelines from the American Heart Association (AHA) and Indian Resuscitation Council (IRC).
Beyond corporate programmes, we run subsidised workshops for RWAs, NGOs and underserved communities across Bengaluru.
Emergencies don't wait. Neither do we. We respond fast, train fast and empower fast — because seconds save lives.
Our 4.9/5 participant rating reflects our commitment to training that is engaging, practical and genuinely life-changing.
Great cardiac training isn't just about knowing the steps — it's about building muscle memory, confidence and community culture around emergency response.
Hrid Raksha is founded and led by two AHA-certified doctors committed to building India's first-responder culture from the ground up — one organisation at a time.
