Highway Deaths Rising in India: Over 29,000 Fatalities in 2025

In the first half of 2025, a lot of people sadly died in accidents on India's highways.

The number of deaths is going up, and it's likely to be more than last year.

Even though highways are a small part of all roads, they have a large share of the accidents.

The government is trying to make highways safer by adding things like better signs and fixing the road designs.

They're also looking at why these accidents happen, and trying to fix those problems, such as poor design.
