Finally there is some concern in India for road accidents

Finally, there seems to be a feeling coming into existence that something should be done and can be done to reduce road accidents. And this time surprisingly the initiative is coming from a government.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister K Rosaiah on Sunday favoured constitution of a Road Safety Coordination Panel comprising senior officials from the departments concerned to regularly meet and chalk out steps to minimize road accidents. Rosaiah will soon hold a high level review meeting with ministers and top officials in this regard and this will be followed by interaction with district officials, highway patrolling police and other departments concerned.

This cannot go on like this. We have to get into action and see that road accidents are minimised, Rosaiah said in an official release in Hyderabad today.
