Vodafone India organized ‘Tour De Deoghhar’ - a 250+ kms long cycle ride from Ranchi to Deoghar, to educate people in the state about the importance of road safety and observing traffic rules. The initiative was undertaken in association with the Ranchi Cycling Club, an association of cycling lovers in Ranchi. Employees of Vodafone Bihar & Jharkhand Circle and members of the cycling club participated in the campaign, riding though breathtaking hills and picturesque forests of Jharkhand spreading the message on health, safety & wellbeing among the citizens, emphasizing on the fundamental traffic rules and highlighting the basic precautions a commuter must take while on the move.
‘Tour De Deoghar’, the two-day Cycle Ride was flagged off by Rajshekhar Metgud, Business Head, Bihar and Jharkhand Circle, Vodafone India from Vodafone Circle Office in Ranchi. The ride covered key locations en route, passing though Mesra – Phusro – Dumri – Giridih – Bengabad – Kakti, before culminating at the Vodafone Mini store in Deoghar. As part of the campaign, Vodafone employees also distributed leaflets to commuters and communicated with them to promote the Absolute Safety Rules of the company and spread awareness on health, safety and wellbeing.
