The revised draft of Bharat NCAP 2.0 has been issued by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways, which oversees regulatory frameworks related to transport safety, vehicle standards, and road-crash prevention measures in India. By expanding the scope of safety assessment areas, increasing mandatory crash tests, introducing advanced test devices, and adding structured evaluation criteria for pedestrian and post-crash protection, the ministry aims to push India’s automobile ecosystem closer to global safety benchmarks. This strengthens public safety, encourages manufacturers to adopt robust safety technologies, and enhances consumer awareness, ultimately contributing to safer mobility and improved road-transport infrastructure across the country.
