हर हाथ जान बचा सकता है — Every Hand Can Save a Life
HarHaathCPR (हर हाथ CPR) is India's first nationwide CPR awareness road trip campaign, organized by Life Saver India Foundation. The name translates to "Every Hand CPR" — reflecting our belief that every pair of hands has the power to save a life.
Two co-founders are driving a Maruti Ertiga across 8 states, covering thousands of kilometers, conducting free Hands-Only CPR workshops in cities, towns, and villages along the way. From Amritsar to Mumbai, the campaign brings CPR awareness directly to communities that need it most.
This is not a medical certification program — it's a public awareness campaign designed to teach every Indian the simplified 3-step CPR technique that can be learned in just 30 minutes. No medical background required. No fee charged. Just the knowledge that could help you save someone's life when every second counts.
The numbers paint an urgent picture — and the solution is in your hands
Indians die from sudden cardiac arrest every year — more than cancer, road accidents, or any infectious disease
of cardiac arrests happen at home, not in hospitals. The victim is usually a family member or loved one
of Indians know CPR. India has one of the lowest bystander CPR rates in the entire world
The brain begins to die within 6-10 minutes without CPR. Ambulance average response time in India: 20-30 minutes
Survival rate is 2-3 times higher when a bystander performs CPR immediately — before the ambulance arrives
Rupees is what it costs to learn CPR. It's free, it's simple, and it takes just 30 minutes to learn a technique that can save lives
Anyone can learn this in 30 minutes — no medical training needed
Check if the person is responsive — tap their shoulders and shout "Are you okay?" If they're not breathing or gasping, immediately call 108 (Ambulance) or 112 (Emergency). Put the phone on speaker so you can start CPR while help is on the way. Every second matters.
Place the heel of one hand on the center of the chest (between the nipples). Place your other hand on top, interlace fingers. Push hard and fast — at least 2 inches deep, at 100-120 compressions per minute (think of the beat of "Stayin' Alive" by Bee Gees). Use your body weight, keep arms straight.
Do not stop compressions until the ambulance arrives, an AED (defibrillator) is available, or the person starts breathing normally. If you get tired, switch with another person without stopping for more than 10 seconds. Continuous chest compressions are critical for survival.
💡 Remember: Push the Chest, Save Your Mate
Many people hesitate to help in emergencies because they fear legal consequences. The Supreme Court of India (2016) and the Motor Vehicles Amendment Act 2019 (Section 134A) protect Good Samaritans — anyone who helps a person in a medical emergency is protected from civil and criminal liability.
This means: if you perform CPR on someone in cardiac arrest and act in good faith, you cannot be sued or arrested. The law is on your side. Don't be a bystander — be a life saver.
🛡️ Good Samaritan Law summary cards are distributed at every HarHaathCPR workshop.
