These include most importantly the thousands of Police first-responders who have gone out of their way to save the lives of victims of road crashes. The Staff and Board members of SaveLIFE Foundation have worked closely with donors, partners, corporate supporters, friends in the media, and community volunteers to give voice to the bereaved families that have been affected, so that solutions can be found in order that other lives can be saved. As Margaret Mead once said ”Never believe that a few caring people can’t change the world. For indeed, that’s all who ever have.” We therefore take strength from the many caring people who have been part of this journey with us. And we thank you for your commitment and dedication to this important cause. Without you, we would not be where we are. Krishen Mehta Chairman, SaveLIFE Foundation 1 History and Mission On April 5th, 2007, my sixteen-year- old cousin Shivam was hit by a speeding jeep while crossing a road on his way home from school. As he lay on the road, Shivam begged passersby for help. While dozens of people crowded around him, no one came forward. Shivam, unable to hold on, passed away at the scene of the crash. For those of us who knew this bright and energetic teen with a zest for life, Shivam’s loss came with unimaginable pain – pain that was amplified by the fact that he would have lived if he had received help in time. What’s more is that the circumstances surrounding Shivam’s final moments are not aberrational. More than 150,000 people die in road crashes in India every year, and of these, fifty percent would have been saved had they received timely medical intervention.1 The status quo being unacceptable, SaveLIFE Foundation was formed on February 29, 2008 to confront the issue. The past ten years have been defining for the organization during which we have made several great strides. We secured India’s first-ever Good Samaritan Law to insulate those who help crash victims from ensuing harassment and intimidation; successfully campaigned for the introduction of a comprehensive road safety bill in Parliament; trained thousands of police officers, volunteers, and vulnerable driver groups in life-saving techniques; and delivered a thirty percent reduction in deaths in 2017 alone on one of India’s deadliest highways, the Mumbai Pune Expressway. With miles to go, SaveLIFE remains committed to its mission. The organization will continue to pursue improvements in road safety and emergency medical care until India’s roads are secure for the most vulnerable of users, and when crashes do occur, emergency medical departments are well-prepared to save lives. As SaveLIFE works to advance its mission, it is fortunate to have some of the best and brightest minds and hearts to anchor it. Our board members continue to work devotedly with us to build our capacity, and our staff is diligently leading some of the most complex and ambitious initiatives in the area of road safety. On this 10th Anniversary, I thank them all for their invaluable contributions.

THE MINISTER OF EXTERNAL AFFAIRS AND MINISTER OF OVERSEAS INDIAN AFFAIRS (SHRIMATI SUSHMA SWARAJ): On the issue which was raised yesterday in the House, I, with utmost responsibility and categorically and equivocally would like to inform this House that the Government of India has no connection to the visit by Shri Ved Prakash Vaidik to Pakistan or his meeting with Hafiz Saeed there. Neither before leaving for Pakistan nor at his arrival there, he informed the Government that he was to meet Hafiz Saeed there. This was his purely private visit and meeting. It has been alleged here that he was somebody‟s emissary, somebody‟s disciple or the Government of India had facilitated the meeting. This is totally untrue as well as unfortunate. I would like to reiterate that the Government of India has no relation to it whatsoever. *MATTERS UNDER RULE 377 (i) SHRI BHARAT SINGH laid a statement regarding need to start work on multipurpose project for development of various facilities in Ballia Parliamentary constituency, Uttar Pradesh.
