Gadkari puts brakes on plan to make 6 airbags must for cars

Road transport and highways minister Nitin Gadkari on Wednesday said that the government has decided against mandating six airbags on Indian cars, arguing that the new Bharat NCAP safety standards and star rating on cars will itself prompt companies to go for adding more safety apparatus to attract buyers. ​​​He also said that the entire auto industry was on board on the safety feature, but for one player, stopping short of naming the company.
