Public safety in Meerut has become a key issue due to a combination of traffic, social, and criminal incidents. Recently, a viral video showed a man driving a car onto the Meerut Cantt railway platform, narrowly missing commuters and a moving train, causing panic. Reckless driving on the Delhi–Meerut Expressway has also been reported, including vehicles moving in the wrong direction and over-speeding, raising accident risks. Dense fog during winter further compounds hazards on highways and local roads, contributing to multi-vehicle pileups. Public awareness campaigns have been launched by traffic police to encourage safe driving and adherence to rules. Patrols and checkpoints have been increased, especially near accident-prone zones and crowded areas. CCTV cameras are being installed in strategic locations to monitor traffic and suspicious activity. Safety concerns extend to rural areas, where incidents of harassment and rumors, such as the so-called “nude gang,” have created fear. Authorities are using drones and night patrols to maintain vigilance in villages and outskirts. Reports of domestic disputes, thefts, and minor violent incidents have also raised concerns. Police have urged citizens to report suspicious activity immediately. Schools and colleges are being advised to follow safety protocols for students traveling alone. Community volunteers and local residents are being encouraged to participate in neighborhood safety programs. Emergency response teams have been placed on high alert during festivals and public events. Public transport, including trains and buses, is being monitored to prevent accidents or misbehavior. Awareness drives are educating citizens on first aid and emergency procedures. Vehicle owners are being advised to maintain proper lighting and safety equipment. Road signage and speed limits are being reinforced on major thoroughfares. Civic authorities are coordinating with police to ensure timely action against violators. Overall, the combination of preventive measures, community vigilance, and police action aims to restore safety and confidence in Meerut’s public spaces.
