At least three died in 15 accidents daily in 2022: Police's report

The report titled Delhi Road Crash Report 2022-projected a grim view of road safety as the number of fatal accidents also increased from 1,239 in 2021 to 1,428 in 2022.

However, the number of people injured in accidents decreased from 4,273 in 2021 to 2,501 in 2022.

Delhi Police commissioner Sanjay Arora, who released the report, said a road safety action plan has been outlined in the document, which involves the joint effort of multiple departments to improve education, engineering, enforcement, and emergency care.

To be sure, fewer vehicles were allowed on Delhi roads in 2021 due to Covid-19 and restrictions made on vehicular movement, which led to fewer violations and accidents.

"The focus is on designing forgiving infrastructure to reduce the chance of crashes occurring in the first place and then reducing the deaths in the cases where they do occur. The efforts of the Delhi Traffic Police have led to a total reduction in road crash deaths in Delhi by 20% over the last decade. Continuing our endeavour to save lives, we have now increased focus on more pedestrian-centric traffic management," said Arora.

'WE SHOULD STOP USING THE TERM PAN-INDIA ACTOR'

Priya Mani Raj, who is set for the release of The Family Man Season 3 next month, has worked in both regional and Hindi industries, but is averse to the tag of “pan-India actor”. Expressing her disapproval, she says, “We're all Indian at the end of the day. You get work in other industries, and that's a good thing, but you don't call someone a ‘regional actor’ when they come from Bollywood to the South. For years, actors from both sides have worked across languages. Why are we suddenly labeling them now? Accept us for who we are and for the characters we play.”
