Surat, located in the western Indian state of Gujarat, is now the commercial and economic center of South Gujarat. It is also one of the largest urban areas of western India and is known for its textile industries. Befittingly, it has been dubbed the Silk City of India. It is also the largest center for man-made fiber in the nation. Along with textiles, diamond cutting and polishing is another industry that has been thriving in this city.
The presence of these industries is a lure for employment seekers, and as such, many migrate to this city for better employment opportunities. Surat will be one of the world's fastest-growing cities from 2019 to 2035, according to a study conducted by Economic Times.
Despite being economically developed, the city is plagued with poor transport management, rampant vehicle theft, etc. Monsoon plays havoc, leading to urban flooding. All this contributes to accidents and regular traffic snarls.

Let's look at the challenges faced by bike owners in Surat, which makes having a valid two-wheeler insurance policy even more important.
Surat being an industrial hub, attracts mass movement of heavy vehicles all the year-round within the city, both on the narrow roads and on the highways. Commutation becomes even worse with the presence of poor worker/labour encroachments across industrial zones.
Heavy rains in Surat, usually leads to flooding of the rivers, causing great damage to vehicle property and road infrastructure. Natural calamities like these can be lethal with an increased propensity for major accidents through collision, open manholes and potholes, etc.
The busy city thronging with vehicles makes it difficult for drivers to find a proper parking space. Often the lack of parking spaces forces drivers to park their vehicles in unsafe areas. Nicking a vehicle from these shady areas is a very easy task for the thieves. Two-wheelers general fall prey of unprotected parking spaces, irresponsible locking, etc.
Lack of proper administration and investment in the development of road infrastructure have lead to severe adversities and fatal accidents within the city. In one of the recent accidents registered in Surat in Sept. 2019, two men on a bike died on the spot after their bike skidded over multiple potholes on NH-48. Gujarat, as a whole, registered 19,081 road accidents in 2017 of which 7,289 were fatal according to the report presented by Commissionerate of Gujarat.
