The Punjab Government has issued detailed guidelines to auto rickshaw drivers carrying children to schools.
They have been directed to carry children as per the sitting capacity of their vehicles. They have also been warned against defying the government directive. Stating this here today, official spokesman said that it had come to the notice of the government that the auto rickshaw drivers were in the habit of defying the traffic rules while taking the children to schools, leading to frequent accidents.
The spokesman also urged the parents to resist using auto rickshaw for the children, because it was not a safe mode of transportation.
