Uttar Pradesh's 'No Helmet, No Fuel' Drive to Reduce Accidents
The government of Uttar Pradesh is starting a campaign to make roads safer.
Starting Monday, motorcycle riders need to wear helmets to get fuel.
This rule is for a month to encourage safe riding.
Officials from various departments are working together to make it happen.
Petrol stations will only give fuel to those wearing helmets, and the government hopes everyone cooperates.
The goal is to reduce road accidents, especially deaths, as Uttar Pradesh has had a high number of road fatalities.
Uttar Pradesh launched a 'No Helmet, No Fuel' campaign to improve road safety.
The campaign started on Monday and runs until September 30 across all 75 districts.
Petrol pumps will not dispense fuel to riders without helmets.
The initiative is led by District Magistrates and road safety committees.
The campaign aims to reduce road accidents and fatalities, given UP's high number of fatalities.
