OBSERVING that road accident victims are on the rise, the Supreme Court on Thursday directed states and union territories to develop swift response protocols so that the accident victims get help at the right time.

A bench of Justice Abhay Oka and Justice Ujjal Bhuyan gave six months' time to the states and UTs to create and implement such protocols with the objective of ensuring that help reaches accident victims without delay.

The court passed the directions after expressing concern over the cases where road accident victims did not get immediate help. "Road accidents in our country are on the rise. The reasons may be different. There are cases where victims of road accidents do not get immediate help. There are cases where the victims may not be injured but they get trapped in vehicles," the bench said.
