None can deny the importance of road safety and in a country especially like India where every year more than 1.5 lakh people die in road accidents and more than 5 lakh are severely injured, it is all the more significant to implementation stricter road safety laws.
This can be done only by quick passage of road safety bill or the Motor Vehicle Amendment Bill 2017. With only a couple of days left for the winter session of the Parliament to end, the MVA Bill should be passed immediately without further delay.Shri Baijayant Jay Panda, ex MP and a person passionate about road safety, reiterated this fact through his Op-ed published in the Financial Express. In the Op-Ed he has urged the lawmakers “to deliberate upon and pass this necessary legislation.”
