The PMs Intervention The increasing road accident rates in
India had caught the attention of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. In his monthly radio programme, Mann Ki Baat [http://www.Narendramodi.In/text-of-prime-minister-s-%E2%80%98 mann-ki-baat-on-all-india-radio-july-2015-208720 ] , broadcasted on July 26 2016, the PM said, "Whether it is education relating to road safety, road engineering, enforcing the law, or providing emergency care to those injured in an accident, we are going to bring a Road Safety and Transport Bill keeping all these points in mind."
It is this concern of the PM that has finally resulted in the new ruling to make Speed Governors mandatory in commercial vehicles. With this show of will, the Government has proved again that it will stay true to its promises to drive the country into a safer and better future.
