'No helmet, no fuel' policy targets road fatalities

NEW DELHI - With 400 deaths per day, or one every four minutes, India has one of the worst road safety records in the world.

To combat the problem, which has been labeled a public health emergency, the central and state governments have often chalked out different plans and launched programs to raise awareness and curb accident numbers.

The latest is the "no helmet, no petrol" policy, launched in the northern Indian state of Uttar Pradesh.
