Stating that “we do not need to make it mandatory,” Union Minister for Road Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari has stressed that if manufacturers want to be in the competition, they “have to make six airbags” as people are cautious now.
Addressing the 63rd Automotive Component Manufacturers Association of India (ACMA) annual session in the national capital on Wednesday, Gadkari said “People are cautious now. Whichever economic model has six airbags, people will prefer to buy that car. We do not need to make it mandatory. It is the manufacturers who have to decide”.
