To strengthen road safety in the country and reduce the number of accidents, Union Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari has decided that from now on, two ISI helmets will have to be given along with the purchase of every two -wheeler. He made this announcement at the auto summit in New Delhi.
Two -wheelers and helmets manufacturers have welcomed the decision. This is an important decision for the auto industry that will help prevent unnecessary accidents and deaths. The two wheeler helmet manufacturing association (THMA) has been demanding a long time to make ISI certified helmets mandatory. Statistics of road accidents and deaths in India are worrying.
More than 4,80,000 accidents occur every year and more than 1,88,000 people die. More than 66 percent of the dead are between 18 and 45 years of age. More than 69,000 people die every year in accidents, especially in accidents related to two -wheelers. More than 50 percent of deaths are caused by not wearing helmets.
Need for the country:

Now such disasters can be stopped. Traveling on two wheel vehicles will no longer be dangerous. The person sitting behind will also wear helmets, which will also make him safe. Good quality helmets will be produced by helmet manufacturers.
