Under National Safety Month 2025, as per the instructions of Deputy Commissioner Komal Mittal, a road safety campaign was conducted in Hoshiarpur district today under the leadership of Regional Transport Officer Ravinder Singh Gill. Under the campaign, 14 challans were issued to vehicles violating traffic rules at various places.

During the campaign, reflector tapes were installed especially at the back of tractor-trolleys, trucks and other heavy vehicles. Drivers were advised to drive slowly and follow traffic rules especially in foggy weather. Also, awareness was created about the necessary safety measures to prevent road accidents.

Regional Transport Officer Ravinder Singh Gill said that under the National Safety Month, our aim is to underline the importance of safety on the road and make people aware of traffic rules. Following traffic rules not only ensures the safety of drivers but also plays an important role in the safety of life and property of other pedestrians.

During this campaign, drivers were explained to be extra cautious while driving in foggy weather, and ensure that the lights and reflectors of the vehicles are working properly. This campaign will continue continuously to prevent accidents and follow traffic rules.

The district administration has appealed to all citizens to be cautious while walking on the road and strictly follow traffic rules. This campaign is an important step towards reducing road accidents and improving the traffic system in the district.
