On Camera: Power Cut At UP Petrol Pump After It Refused Fuel To Lineman Without Helmet | Read
In a chain of events demonstrating why India is not for beginners, a fuel pump attendant's insistence on following the 'no helmet, no petrol' rule led to consequences he would not have imagined. The biker, who was refused fuel, happened to be an electricity department staff and took revenge by snipping the fuel pump's power supply. The bizarre incident took place in Uttar Pradesh's Hapur district on Monday. The Yogi Adityanath government has asked district officials to enforce the 'no helmet, no petrol' rule as part of an initiative to reduce road accident casualties. Petrol pump owners have also been asked to refuse fuel to bikers who don't wear helmets.
