In India, wearing a helmet is mandatory for two-wheeler riders under the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988. However, Section 129 provides a specific exemption for members of the Sikh community who wear a turban. This relaxation is rooted in religious traditions and Article 25 of the Indian Constitution, which protects the right to practice religion. The law clarifies that this exemption only applies if the person is wearing a turban; otherwise, they are liable to be fined by traffic police just like any other citizen. https://odishasambad.in/helmets-are-mandatory-for-two-wheelers-but-why-are-they-still-neglected/ #creator program
