SC mulls pan-India guidelines to curb mishaps on highways

The Supreme Court on Monday mulled formulating pan-India guidelines to prevent road accidents, such as a recent one in Rajasthan’s Phalodi that claimed 15 lives, on expressways and national highways.

A bench of justices J. K. Maheshwari and Vijay Bishnoi flagged the construction of illegal “dhabas” on both sides of national highways and expressways as a possible cause of road accidents and asked Solicitor General Tushar Mehta, who appeared in the matter for the National Highways Authority of India (NHAI), to submit the statutory rules and regulations for initiating action against these eateries.
