####Grand Conclusion of National Road Safety Month 2026 at Geetanjali Medical College & Hospital

Udaipur: The National Road Safety Month 2026 concluded on a grand and inspiring note at Geetanjali Medical College & Hospital (GMCH), Udaipur, with a vibrant award distribution and cultural programme held at the Late Narmada Devi Auditorium. The month-long awareness campaign was observed from January 1 to January 31, 2026 and culminated in a well-attended closing ceremony.

The event was organized under the joint aegis of Geetanjali Medical College & Hospital, the Transport and Road Safety Department, District Police, and Aadhar Foundation, with the objective of spreading awareness about road safety and saving lives.

The programme was graced by Regional Transport Officer Mr. Gyan Dev Vishwakarma as the Chief Guest. Distinguished guests included GMCH CEO Mr. Rishi Kapoor, Marketing Head Mr. Kalpesh Chand Rajbar, District Legal Services Authority Judge Mr. Kuldeep Sharma, Deputy Superintendent of Police Mr. Madan Gehlot, Traffic Inspector Mr. Sunil Charan, along with Mr. Manoj Joshi, Mr. Chandragupt Singh Chauhan, and several other dignitaries.

Focus on Awareness Through Education

Addressing the gathering, GMCH CEO Mr. Rishi Kapoor emphasized the importance of instilling road safety awareness and civic sense among children at an early age. He advocated for the inclusion of road safety and traffic rules in school curricula, stating that habits such as wearing helmets, using seat belts, and following traffic regulations should be developed from the foundation years.

He added that many developing countries demonstrate better compliance with traffic norms, and if society collectively becomes more responsible toward personal safety, road accidents can be significantly reduced.

Culture Meets Cause

Representing Aadhar Foundation, Narayan Chaudhary informed that the programme began with the popular road safety song “Itni Safety Humein Dena Data”. This was followed by engaging street plays, puppet shows, dance performances, singing, and other cultural acts centered on road safety themes.

A key highlight of the event was the innovative approach of explaining serious issues such as helmet use, seat belts, overspeeding, and overloading through entertaining and creative presentations, making the message impactful and easily understandable—especially for children.
