Withdraw rule that makes 6 airbags mandatory in passenger cars: IRF to Gadkari

International Road Federation (IRF) has urged Road Transport Minister Nitin Gadkari to withdraw the notification making six airbags mandatory in passenger cars from October 2023. IRF said this rule should be made mandatory once 85% of the people start wearing rear seat belts. "Unless people start wearing rear seat belts, the provision of six airbags will become counterproductive," it said.
