Speaking on the initiative, Vishal Kaul, COO at Ola said, “I have interacted with several ex-servicemen of the country, and they have some inspiring stories to tell! With Ola Share, we strive to achieve freedom from congestion that will go a long way in improving the quality of life for every Indian.”

He is Excited to share his story, and said, “I have served in the army for 30 years and am a proud retired officer. My life’s mission and that of many others like me continues to be serving the nation’s best interests.”


Well, that’s a beautiful initiative! It’s more of a ‘Ek Teer se do nishaane’ kinda initiative. On one hand, they aim to curb with the problem of increasing traffic and pollution. On the other hand, they give much-deserved recognition to our real heroes.
