World Day of Remembrance- Salem

In India, road crashes claim around 150,000 lives and disable at least 750,000 more each year. The World Day of Remembrance is dedicated to honouring the millions who have lost their lives or been injured on the world’s roads, along with their loved ones and all those affected. To mark this day, CAG organised road safety awareness events at colleges across 11 districts, aiming to raise awareness among students.

With around 100 participants, the event focused on educating college students about safe driving practices, the importance of following traffic rules, and the consequences of reckless driving. The session concluded with students taking a pledge to prioritise road safety and protect lives on the road.
