Islamabad, Oct 2: Punjab Govt Enforces Strict Helmet Rule for Students and Teachers to Ensure Road Safety. College students are now required to wear helmets. The Punjab government has imposed stringent regulations at all institutions and colleges in an effort to guarantee the safety of motorcycle riders. The government has given these organizations particular instructions to impose a helmet-required policy on staff and students who ride motorcycles.
Vice-chancellors (VCs) of institutions have been instructed to prohibit admission for anyone who disobeys the helmet requirement in order to enforce this new policy. To ensure compliance, sanctions are anticipated to be included as well. Similar instructions were also sent to the heads of government colleges in Punjab, advising them to take harsh measures against noncompliant professors and students.
The Punjab government has taken a more drastic step and ordered colleges to link student attendance to compliance with the strict helmet rule. Students who don’t wear helmets risk having their attendance recorded, which a powerful incentive to comply is.
The Punjab Higher Education Department has sent out a notification emphasizing the fact that all motorcycle riders on campuses are now required to wear helmets. Colleges and universities have also been told to start educating people about the value of helmets. Announcements and lectures should be a part of these initiatives to inform professors and students about the vital role helmets play in lowering injuries and fatalities in auto accidents.
Strict helmet rule surveillance will also be put in place at these institutions’ ports of entry and departure. Motorcyclists who fail to wear a helmet will be apprehended at the entrance, guaranteeing that the policy is applied uniformly to all public institutions and universities.
