A draft road transport and safety bill is posted on the MORTH website. Click here to see the draft.  It is a long, long piece of legislation by Indian standards, about 305 pages.  The law also appears to try and cover anything and everything connected to road transport in one, giant, omnibus legislation.

From the initial thoughts gathered here we found a lot of gaps in what it claims to do vs what it actually is trying to do. Some of us gathered in a group and it led to a few things

1. We will break this mammoth piece of a bill down to its constituent parts in this project and see if we can gather public opinion on it.

2. We will write to the ministry recommending more diligence in such things and supplement with the thoughts we have gathered here

So here goes.
