The National Road Safety Education Excellence Awards 2025-26, held in New Delhi, celebrated over 1,100 institutions for their contributions to structured road safety education under the National Road Safety Mission (NRSM). This initiative has reached more than 5,000 schools across 35 states and Union Territories in India, engaging over 2.2 million students through tailored learning modules. The program emphasizes key areas such as school zone safety audits and a K12 road safety curriculum, aiming to improve safety conditions around educational institutions. Notable awardees included several Delhi schools, such as Salwan Public School and Air Force Golden Jubilee Institute. The event featured prominent figures like Rajni Thakur, Project Director of NRSM, and Manit Jain, Co-founder of Heritage Schools, who stressed the importance of structured education over mere awareness campaigns. The initiative aspires to educate 20 million students by 2026, addressing the critical issue of road traffic injuries, particularly among children and young adults. Thakur underscored the mission as a community-driven effort to foster a culture of road safety.
