DIMAPUR, JULY 14 (MExN): In an effort to enhance road safety along the road connecting Phek district, the Phek District Road Safety Committee convened a meeting on July 14 at the Deputy Commissioner's office chamber.

A DIPR report informed that the meeting primarily focused on addressing key concerns related to driver sensitization, visual illustrations of safe driving practices, and the installation of convex mirrors. These measures were identified as crucial steps toward promoting road safety within the district.

Under the guidance of Phek DC, Kumar Ramnikant, the committee members deliberated extensively on strategies to raise awareness among drivers about safe driving practices. They recognized the importance of education and training programs to instill responsible behavior on the roads.
