The Supreme Court has ordered that only constitutional authorities and high dignitaries identified by the government are only eligible to use the Red Beacon Lights in their vehicles. The SC has strictly that all others at present using red beacon should stop it forthwith. The SC also stated that ambulance, police etc. can use blue beacon.One moth time is given to the governments to implement the same.

The decision of the apex court is most welcome. At present, many persons who are not eligible are using the red beacon and speeding past with high sirens causing a lot of harassment to traffic.

The order has got to be strictly implemented.
