Rajasthan Transport Minister Yunus Khan today called for preparing a concrete action plan on road safety by involving all stakeholders.

Chairing the meeting of the state road safety council, the minister asked the officials to rope in NGOs so that the message of road safety reaches out to remote areas.

He said regular road safety campaigns should be run not only in urban but rural areas as well.

"A detailed calendar for the activities under the road safety plan should be prepared," Khan said.

The minister also suggested the police department to run a special seven-day campaign against the use of substandard helmets.
