Dholpur, July 31 (HS). A meeting of the district level road safety special task force and road safety committee was held in the Collectorate auditorium on Wednesday. In the meeting, discussions were held regarding the causes of road accidents and measures to prevent them.

District Collector Srinidhi BT said that NHAI officials should not show indifference in the matter of black spots on the highway. This is a matter of people's lives. He said that the departments responsible for road accidents will be considered negligent. All departments should complete the work given for road safety within the stipulated time so that road accidents can be reduced. He ordered NHAI and Nagar Parishad Dholpur to repair the traffic light at Water Works intersection immediately and remove the speed breaker and stray animals from the highway and send them to the cowshed.

In the meeting, District Superintendent of Police Sumit Meharda said that the Municipal Council should get lining done on the busy roads of the city to stop haphazard parking, so that action can be taken to seize the vehicles parked outside. He said that all the departments should cooperate in traffic management by making better coordination and strategy. District Transport Officer Devanand and other officers were present in the meeting.
