Will wear helmet, min tells court
Madurai:19.01.2019

The Madurai bench of the Madras high court on Friday disposed of a petition against health and family welfare minister, C Vijayabaskar after he submitted an affidavit before it stating that he would not ride a motorcycle without helmet.

A division bench of justice K K Sasidharan and justice P D Audikesavalu had earlier taken cognisance of the photographs of the minister riding a two-wheeler without helmet and sought an affidavit from him after orally observing that safety applies even to the health minister. The court directions were in response to a petition filed by social activist ‘Traffic’ Ramasamy two months ago seeking action against the minister for violating court directions.

Ramasamy stated in his petition that the minister violated court orders. TNN
