Lucknow,

12 Jan (HS): Yogi Adityanath, Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, declared on

Monday that the state will mark 'Road Safety Month'. The campaign will run

until January 31, i.e. Sunday. The Chief Minister stated that during 'road

safety month', police personnel would ensure that regulations are properly

implemented across the state's many areas to avoid traffic accidents. According

to CM Yogi, the move will protect families and their futures in the state.

UP

CM’s post on X, reads as follows: “My respected citizens, we are organizing

Road Safety Month across the state until January 31. This is a

pledge to protect our families and our future. To ensure that the state's roads

are smooth and safe for everyone, the police will strictly enforce the rules,

but everyone's cooperation is also expected. I am confident that you will

follow traffic rules to make the state's roads smooth and safe.”

Uttar

Pradesh is commemorating 'Road Safety Day' till January 31. The goal of the

campaign, according to Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, is to bring the state's

death toll to zero. He claimed that a campaign is being carried out in 20

districts across the state that has been identified as having a high accident

rate. Furthermore, investigators have identified over 3,000 accident-prone

areas. The active campaign 'Road Safety Month' will ensure road safety in the

state.

While

expressing grief over the deaths caused by irresponsible driving in the state,

Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said on Monday that a special campaign will be

performed in 20 'accident-prone regions' of the state, with the goal of

reducing such deaths to zero. Over 3,000 accident-prone areas have been

identified throughout the state. The government will prioritize five 'E'

formulas: education, enforcement, engineering, and emergency care, with an

emphasis on improving driving behavior. CM Adityanath also reminded drivers

that pedestrians have 'same rights on the road' and expressed confidence that

vehicles will obey traffic laws to make roads safer.

While

police will carefully enforce the laws to keep the state's roads safe and

accessible to all, everyone's participation is also required. Using a cell

phone while driving can be dangerous for both you and others. Follow the speed

limit. Speeding and intoxicated driving are among the major causes of deadly

accidents, according to the CM, who also stated that helmets and seat belts are

more than just accessories.

The

Chief Minister wrote, They ensure your and your family's safety. Parents

are responsible for ensuring that minor children do not drive automobiles. Pay

attentive attention and be sensitive to pedestrians. Remember, they have the

same rights on the road. I am certain that you will observe traffic regulations

to keep the state's roadways safe and accessible.”
