The Balod district administration in Chhattisgarh is taking decisive action to improve road safety. As part of this effort, all petrol pumps in the district are now required to refuse petrol to motorcyclists not wearing helmets. This measure is part of a broader strategy to reduce road accidents. Police authorities are actively working to inform the public about traffic regulations, combining educational efforts with stricter enforcement measures. Devansh Singh Rathore, the Deputy Superintendent of Police, confirmed the new initiative.
