Role of Morth on road safety

As said earlier Ministry or road transport and highways is the responsible authority to implement road safety in the country.It include planning of road safety programs,preparation of schemes,and drafting of road safety policy etc.The role of is very crucial in reduction of road accidents.
However the death toll in Indian roads are increasing day by day.We are afraid of hijacking of our jumbo aircraft due to the amount of casualties.In fact equivalent to crash of a jumbo aircraft is taking place on our roads on each day, when death toll and monetary loss of road accidents are considered.Still we are busy with building motor- able roads and related infrastructure.Motor able road is a phrase used to describe just roads but not road -user friendly.While construction of roads respective authorities never consider the road accident chances hidden in that place.Even the construction process itself attract road accident.No statutory precaution is taken by any of the contractor except putting some illegible board indicating the hidden danger on that area.Contractors as well as officials believe that the eye vision power of the drivers are equivalent to that of cats and tiger so that they can read the already illegible road during the night time also and on that belief they never bothered to put some light to support reading.Every one reading this may be witnessing total careless approach of road contractors while making development works on public roads.Big contractors are observing at least few of the precaution for name sake whereas the petty contractors who make minor developments on roads for example digging new sewage canal under a road or digging road for various application's are negligent of erecting some danger information.They all believe in the power of god to avoid mishaps possible to occur due to the negligent handling of road work . Fortunately our government agencies engaged in supply of power, water or communication network are not at all worried about the chances of a road accident like falling a bike rider in to diged hole for KWA,or falling of a motor car in to a digged canal during night time
