"Make a promise. You will wear helmet next time. It's dangerous to you, Life is very precious. Is that a promise..100 percent?" This is how Sachin, who is also a Rajya Sabha member, extracted the promise from the youths.

As the car started to move, a man riding the two-wheeler with a woman on pillion waved at Sachin.

Sachin waved back at him and also advised, "Helmet dalo bhai."
