'Promoting Road Safety Through IPL Will Be A Big Victory For India': Helmet Man Raghavendra Kumar
Helmet Man Raghavendra Kumar: Raghavendra Kumar, popularly known as the Helmet Man of India, has urged the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) to leverage the massive reach of the Indian Premier League (IPL) to promote road safety awareness across the country, stating that cricket remains the most powerful medium to influence public behaviour.
Kumar, who was the chief guest at a six-over tennis ball tournament organised by Victorious Endeavours at the DDA Siri Fort Complex on Sunday, highlighted how the sport can be used to inspire millions to adopt safer practices on roads.
"Cricket is the most popular sport in India. Fans watch their favourite players hit boundaries and sixes, but they often forget that cricketers confidently face fast bowlers because they wear helmets. That itself is a strong message for road safety," Kumar told IANS.
