Indore Viral Video Sparks Probe Into Helmet Rule Violation
A recent clip has stirred debate over helmet rules in Indore among local officials. “In Indore, amidst the order of no petrol without a helmet,” a youth took a bizarre route—he filled petrol wearing the lid of a milk container. The video went viral, forcing the administration to act. “After the video went viral, the administration investigated and sealed the pump.” This negligence was traced to the Kumudini Enterprises pump located on Nemawar Road.
Indore, known for topping the national clean city list for eight consecutive years, found itself in the spotlight for a very different reason. The probe at Nemawar Road’s Kumudini Enterprises pump revealed blatant rule-breaking.

Helmet Rentals Outside Pumps Raise Safety and Legal Questions
Helmet renting services have emerged as a quick fix for rule breakers outside petrol stations. At Aerodrome Road’s Bhatia Petrol Pump, users pay Rs 10 to Rs 20 for a helmet. Riders borrow helmets unsafely just long enough to fill their tanks before returning them promptly.
Local media have shared clips of the rental practice under trending popular viral videos tags. Authorities warn that such schemes may violate strict safety laws and invite legal penalties soon. The helmet rental stalls have drawn criticism from road safety experts and local enforcement agencies. Pump owners face scrutiny for enabling the rental businesses.
