Sadak Surakhya Force saving lives on roads in Punjab
Punjab E News: In a significant move to reduce the rising death toll from road accidents, the Bhagwant Singh Mann government has introduced a dedicated Road Safety Force. This newly established force has already saved countless lives and is proving to be a vital link in preventing daily road accidents across the state.
The Sadak Surakhya Force (SSF) ensures immediate response to accidents, allowing for quick relief efforts at the scene, providing much-needed assistance to the public. The Mann government’s primary goal is to protect citizens from any disaster and provide timely aid. While much work remains in this area, a strong start often leads to great results.
How the Sadak Surakhya Force Operates.
The force operates by stationing high-tech vehicles every 30 kilometers on major routes. Information about any road accident is relayed through the toll-free number 112, which activates the control room. The Sadak Surakhya Force team, often referred to as ‘guardian angels,’ rushes to the accident site without delay. Their priority is to provide first aid, particularly stopping blood loss, and then transport the injured to the nearest hospital.
The government takes pride in the fact that this initiative has prevented many families from being torn apart and has saved countless lives, including ensuring that many children do not lose their parents to accidents.
The Sadak Surakhya Force has been instrumental in giving accident victims a second chance at life. The people of Punjab deeply appreciate this initiative and express their heartfelt gratitude to the Mann government for this life-saving effort.
