We really appreciate the move of Cyberabad Police to think of an intensified implementation of the helmet rule in the city. The step was taken in stopping the use of non-ISI helmets in the city that needs to be replicated across the country. Then the only usage of safe, true ISI helmets is only practiced in our country.”
