New Delhi: Cabs Paraforce, a purpose driven venture empowering retired army, paramilitary, and police personnel, launched its cab services on April 23rd, at the Constitution Club of India. The chief guests of the launch event were Mr. Deepak Punia and Mr. Yogeshwar Dutt, both being world renowned wrestlers and Ms. Janice Darbari, Hon’ble Ambassador of Montenegro. In the first phase of their launch, the cab services have initially been introduced in Delhi-NCR and Hyderabad.
Women’s safety, especially while travelling at night through different cab services, has been a much less talked about issue for quite a while. Even the number of reported cases of crimes committed against them, has witnessed a sharp increase, over the past few years. In all this, Cabs Paraforce has taken the plunge to be the first startup cab services provider to recruit retired army, paramilitary, and defence personnel from all ranks and order, as their Cab Captains, for advanced safety and convenience of the commuters.
Cabs Paraforce comes with a wide set of security features. Its vehicles are equipped with the best in class on-board security cameras, along with a GPS sensor, which ensures the safety of the traveller, and simultaneously monitors the movement of the vehicles by military personnel. Simultaneously, the provisions of the company also include the fact that no cab can be allowed to stop for more than 5 minutes between the origin and the destination, which reassures an extra cover of security to the commuters. The cabs of Cab Paraforce also come equipped with the first ever in-built threat detectors, which analyse and troubleshoot the problems within the vehicle, and keep the customer as well as the Captain, safe and sound.
Speaking about the launch of the cab services, Mr. Deepak Mudgal, Founder and Director of Cabs Paraforce said, ‘Through the launch of Cabs Paraforce, we are much content with the fact that our commuters can feel more than secure in our cabs, and can even travel at any time and from anywhere without having to worry about their security. We even believe that the crimes against women, specifically in the taxi industry, would come down with our advanced security features.’ Talking about the expansion of the services, he further said, ‘Initially, we are introducing our cab services to Hyderabad and Delhi. However, in future, we would expand our network across other cities as well, to ensure that a complete environment of safe travelling may be created in our country.’
Besides, Cabs Paraforce also empowers the retired servicemen by providing them various reemployment opportunities, so that they may not fall apart in keeping themselves going post retirement.
