LAHORE, Jan. 21 -- The Punjab government has launched a citywide campaign to install safety rods on motorcycles ahead of Basant. Officials aim to protect riders from dangerous kite strings during the three-day festival from February 6 to 8. Free ride services will also be provided across the city to ensure public safety and smooth traffic.

The campaign was inaugurated at Azadi Chowk by Commissioner Maryam Khan, CCPO Bilal Siddique Kamyana, and CTO Dr. Athar Waheed. Road safety camps were set up, and free safety rods were installed on motorcycles, with officials monitoring the process.
