Rah-Veer: Save a Life Without Fear - Good Samaritan Protections Ensure You Don’t Need to Worry About Anything
- Rah-Veer ("traveller-hero") is the official term coined by the Ministry of Road Transport & Highways (MoRTH) for a Good Samaritan who voluntarily aids a road-accident victim within the Golden Hour.
- Backed by Section 134A of the Motor Vehicles (Amendment) Act, 2019 and the Good Samaritan Rules, 2020, the framework shields helpers from civil/criminal liability and adds a cash-reward layer.
- Examinable as a GS-II governance/welfare measure and GS-III road safety topic; intersects with the Brasilia Declaration / SDG 3.6 target of halving road deaths.
