Seatbelts save lives - but too many among us don't use them. In India (2023), over 16,025 people died in crashes because they weren’t wearing seatbelts. 

In Tamil Nadu, 536 lives were lost for the same reason. These are preventable deaths. Two seconds to buckle up could mean a lifetime saved. A family spared years of grief. 

Whether you’re in the front seat or the back, driver or passenger, seatbelts aren’t optional. Buckle up! 

Whose City Is This? Are Indian cities truly inclusive for everyone? Sathish Kumar, a wheelchair user, began using public buses after the introduction of low-floor buses in Chennai — completing an impressive 312 rides within a year of their launch. This milestone, made possible after decades of advocacy, marks more than personal freedom: it represents a vital step towards making our cities accessible and inclusive for all.

Our cities are growing and expanding every day, but true progress means putting people first when designing our cities. People-centred smart city is about:

Walkable, safe, and inclusive streets

Affordable housing and accessible services

Green public spaces that connect communities

Technology that empowers its citizens

Sustainable transport that keeps everyone moving
