Sachin Tendulkar welcomed the Centre's insistence on compliance with the provision which makes it mandatory for all passengers in a car to put on seat belts.
Batting legend Sachin Tendulkar on Sunday recalled his interview advocating the wearing of seat belts as the best measure of protection, days before former Tata Sons chairman Cyrus Mistry was killed in a car crash near Mumbai.
He also welcomed the Centre's insistence on compliance with the provision which makes it mandatory for all passengers in a car to put on seat belts.
Mr Mistry (54) and his friend Jehangir Pandole were killed and two other occupants injured after their luxury car crashed on a bridge on September 4 in Maharashtra's Palghar district.
As per the prima facie investigation, Mr Mistry and Mr Pandole who were in the back seats of the car had not strapped the belts at the time of the accident.
