    The document discusses the need for a more pedestrian-friendly transport environment in India. It notes that pedestrians are legitimate road users but often lack adequate facilities. Improving pedestrian safety could reduce the number of trips and crashes, as pedestrians currently make up 9% of total traffic fatalities. The document advocates using the "6 E's" - education, engineering, enforcement, emergency care, and enactment - to address the issues. It argues that another advocacy body could help raise public awareness of pedestrian needs, spread safe road use practices, and better coordinate stakeholders to identify problems and optimize resources. The Ministry of Road Transport and Highways has already taken some initiatives to improve conditions for pedestrians and non-motorized transport.
