Addressing a gathering during a one-day workshop on "Emergency Care and Schemes for road accident victims in Punjab", organised by the Lead Agency on Road Safety "Punjab Road Safety Council" at MGSIPA, both the cabinet ministers said that the Punjab government has been working intensively to reduce death mortality rate in road accidents by 50% by 2025 and making every possible effort to achieve this goal.
