Road safety awareness is a responsible behaviour from all road users: Harsh Malhotra

Minister of State for Road Transport & Highways and Corporate Affairs Harsh Malhotra emphasized that road safety awareness initiatives are not merely isolated events but integral components of a larger national movement aimed at fostering a culture of responsible road usage across the country.

The Minister reaffirmed its unwavering commitment to strengthening road safety and promoting responsible driving behaviour as he flagged off the 3rd Edition of the Uttarakhand Adventure Ride organised by PHD Chamber of Commerce and Industry (PHDCCI).

Shri Malhotra noted that under the visionary leadership of Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi and the guidance of Minister for Road Transport and Highways Shri Nitin Gadkari, India has made remarkable strides in expanding and modernizing its road infrastructure. However, he stated that ensuring safety ultimately rests on the collective responsibility and conduct of citizens. (UPDATED ON 9TH APRIL 2026)
