Why not towards?

Please explain.

@Ujala Narayan.

The sense has to be that the company does not derail "from" the path it is supposed to take. Using "towards" instead will not make sense as one can only derail (move away) "from" path. "Towards" will only be suitable if one has to get closer to the path. I hope it helps you understand the perspective.
