In addition to other measures to honour World Heart Day, traffic light modifications that transformed them into symbols of the heart were made in more than 15 spots throughout the city.
What was said by the hospital?
On the occasion of #WorldHeartDay, Manipal Hospitals installed technologies to inspire Bangalore to be a “heart smart city,” according to a tweet from the hospital network. These included the red signal having a heart shape, audio messages promoting heart health, and QR codes for quick access to emergency services rather than dialling a number. Here are a few pictures of the same.
