Secretary, @MORTHIndia urges Volunteers to Focus on Prevention of Road Accidents and Save Lives 💠The program aims to empower India’s youth as active contributors to road safety, creating a youth-driven movement across the country. The three-day intensive workshop brought together 53 volunteers from 5 states and 13 districts. Participants were trained to support District Road Safety Committees (DRSCs) in three key areas: first response to accidents, road safety audits, and administrative support for district-level road safety initiatives Read here: pib.gov.in/PressReleasePa…

The Sadak Suraksha Mitra Initiative of MoRTH is mobilizing India’s youth to champion road safety at the grassroots. From identifying high-risk stretches and supporting district road-safety interventions to creating community awareness and promoting responsible road behaviour, these volunteers are shaping a culture where safety is a shared national responsibility. These young changemakers are more than volunteers—they are the frontline catalysts of a people-driven road safety movement, working across districts to identify risks, engage communities, and strengthen India’s journey toward safer, more responsible mobility. #SadakSurakshaMitra #SadakSurakshaJeevanRaksha #RoadSafety #YouthForSafety #JanBhagidari

राष्ट्रीय राजमार्गों पर अनधिकृत निर्माण केवल अतिक्रमण नहीं, बल्कि दुर्घटनाओं का कारण है। इससे सड़क की चौड़ाई घटती है, दृश्यता कम होती है और यात्रियों की सुरक्षा खतरे में पड़ती है। नियमों का पालन करें—निर्माण केवल स्वीकृत और सुरक्षित स्थानों पर ही करें। सुरक्षित राजमार्ग, सुरक्षित भविष्य—आइए, अतिक्रमण को “ना” कहें। #EncroachmentFreeHighways #ClearHighwaysSafeJourneys #RoadSafety

National Highways Fee Rules, 2026 Amended to Strengthen Toll Compliance and Digital Enforcement Introducing a comprehensive and technology-driven framework to strengthen toll compliance on National Highways, the Government of India has notified the National Highways Fee (Determination of Rates and Collection) (Second Amendment) Rules, 2026. The amendment provides a structured recovery mechanism in cases of unpaid user fee and has been introduced to strengthen digital enforcement of toll collection, particularly in the context of evolving barrier-free tolling systems, and to ensure efficient and transparent realisation of user fee on National Highways. The rules have come into effect from 17th March 2026. The amendment also modifies the rules to introduce the definition of “unpaid user fee” as the toll applicable to a vehicle whose passage has been recorded by Electronic Toll Collection (ETC) infrastructure but where the applicable user fee has not been received. The structured recovery mechanism for unpaid user fee, notified under Rule 14, includes a technology-driven Electronic Notice (e-notice) system, wherein electronic notices will be issued to registered vehicle owners specifying vehicle details, date and location of passage, and the amount payable. These notices may be served through SMS, email, mobile-based applications, or other electronic means, and will also be made available on a designated online portal.
