Respected Sir,
Sub: Issue of tinted, black film glasses and curtains in vehicles in Uttrap Pradesh in Particular and India as General
Honourable Supreme Court, Writ Petition (Civil) No. 265 of 2011, prohibited the use of black films of any VLT percentage or any other material upon the safety glasses, windscreens (front and rear) and side glasses of all vehicles throughout the country.
Sir,this was done (1) In response to the alarming rise in heinous crimes like kidnapping, sexual assault on women and dacoity have impinged upon the right to life and the right to live in a safe environment which are within the contours of Article 21 of the Constitution of India. One of the contributory factors to such increase is use of black films on windows/windshields of four-wheeled vehicles. (2) The use of black films upon the vehicles gives immunity to the violators in committing a crime and is used as a tool of criminality, considerably increasing criminal activities. (3) Besides aiding in commission of crimes, black films on the vehicles are also at times positively correlated with motor accidents on the roads. (4) The use of black films also prevents the traffic police from seeing the activity in the car and communicating with the driver of the vehicle.
The recent crime of gang rape in Delhi is an example of failure of implementation of the Court order. On behalf of People’s Vigilance Committee on Human Rights (PVCHR), Varanasi, I pray to NHRC through you to take necessary action and provide direction to the concerned authorities that no vehicle in Uttar Pradesh in [particulars and India in general has tinted or black film in its glasses. It should also be ensured that no vehicle should have curtains. A complete ban is the need of the hour.
