Indian transport minister Nitin Gadkari said on Tuesday that the passengers sitting at the back of a car will now be fined if found not wearing seatbelts. The comment came just two days after former TATA Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry died in a car crash near Mumbai.

Indian transport minister Nitin Gadkari said on Tuesday that the passengers sitting at the back of a car will now be fined if found not wearing seatbelts. The comment came just two days after former TATA Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry died in a car crash near Mumbai. Mistry was sitting at the back of his Mercedes without any seatbelt and was killed when the speeding car crashed into a divider near Palgham. "Already, it's mandatory to wear a seatbelt on the rear seat but people are not following it. There will be a siren if the people in the rear seat don't wear belts like for the front seats. And if they don't wear belts, there will be a fine," Gadkari told NDTV before adding that "at any cost, lives have to be saved".

He also explained that the government will be working towards the compulsory installation of airbags in the back seat of every car and as a result, they will be concentrating on increasing its production.
