Traffic Rules: Agra District Administration has enacted stringent regulations aimed at enhancing road safety. Individuals found driving without a helmet or seat belt risk having their driving licenses revoked.
Additionally, the “No Helmet, No Fuel” policy will be rigorously enforced at all fuel stations throughout the city. This directive was issued by Additional District Magistrate (ADM) Anup Kumar during a meeting of the District Road Safety Committee.
