Yi Partnership with AICTE for developing youth leadership
- 31 October 2022
We are the voice of Young Indians globally.
Project Road Safety was conceived by CII Young Indians under the Yi pillar of Nation-Building. The importance of safety on Indian roads cannot be overlooked by any organisation or individual today. A total of 4,49,002 road accidents have been reported by states and union territories (UTs) in the calendar year 2019, with 1,51,113 casualties and 4,51,361 injured people, according to a report by the transport research wing of the Indian ministry of road transport and highways.Â
These figures are worrisome and have forced Yi to build an ecosystem to educate and monitor drivers, bystanders, and other stakeholders. We want to raise awareness among young children and teenagers so that road safety and discipline become ingrained in them from an early age. Topics such as reducing noise pollution, traffic calming, abiding by the speed limit, motorway awareness, improving driving etiquette, lane discipline and first aid training are all part of Road Safety.
Our objective is to educate stakeholders on the importance of following traffic rules and imbue in them a responsibility to take care of their fellow Indians on the road, which is done through the following modules:
It helps spread awareness of the Good Samaritan Act. The purpose of the Good Samaritan Law is to provide legal protection to bystanders who come to the aid and rescue of road accident victims.

The Rural Road Safety Animal Protection Program aims to protect stray cattle from road accidents with reflective markers.
