Mohd Amanullah Khan, TTWRA Convener, in a press statement here on Friday alleged that the police authorities had miserably failed to implement the compulsory helmet rule on two-wheeler riders and hence, being helpless the government was intending to implement “No Helmet, No Petrol” plan forcibly so that more and more helmets are sold in the market. Besides, he said that the government was planning to enforce the helmet rule on the pillion-riders also.

Further, stating that “since other citizens in the society are not affected due to an individual’s choice of not wearing helmet, the government may well review the rule”, and appealed to the two-wheeler riders to oppose the compulsory helmet law tooth and nail.
