Tirupati Imposes No Helmet No Petrol Rule
In Tirupati, the police started a new rule called 'No Helmet - No Petrol'.
This means if you don't wear a helmet, you can't buy petrol for your bike.
They did this because many young people, aged 18-35, were dying in bike accidents because they weren't wearing helmets.
The police and the local leader, Dr. Venkateswar, think this rule will make people wear helmets to stay safe.
They also put up banners and had rallies to teach people about the importance of helmets.
Some people, like Naveen Kumar and Harika, think this rule is good because it will help young people remember to wear helmets and stay safe.
Tirupati police imposed 'No Helmet - No Petrol' rule to enforce helmet wearing.
Most two-wheeler accident fatalities were aged 18-35 and not wearing helmets.
District SP L Subba Rayudu hopes the rule will save lives by making helmet use compulsory.
Awareness campaigns through banners, flexis, and rallies were launched to promote helmet use.
Public reaction includes support from residents who believe the rule will instill helmet-wearing habits.
