Despite a month-long campaign and multiple reminders from the Police Headquarters (PHQ), most districts in Madhya Pradesh have failed to submit complete reports on bus safety inspections.
A significant delay has been observed in the statewide bus safety audit initiative undertaken by the Madhya Pradesh Police Headquarters. A month after the campaign was launched, a substantial number of districts have not yet submitted their complete inspection reports.
This lack of compliance has prompted the Police Headquarters to issue a second reminder to all districts. The directive aims to expedite the submission of these crucial safety assessment reports, highlighting the urgency of ensuring passenger safety on public transport.
The initiative, designed to enhance the safety standards of buses operating within the state, appears to be facing administrative hurdles at the district level, leading to a slowdown in the overall progress of the audit.
