Many Indians feel that helmets are not essential and never practice wearing them. However, they are essential for the driving person as well as the person sitting behind. There are many incidents where helmets saved the lives of persons travelling on two-wheelers. Many helmets will not have a face shield. As such, wipers may not be required.
People who go to underground mining will wear a helmet to which a light is attached. That will be useful for them as it will be very dark in the underground mines. But they have to carry battery on their back which is very heavy. So providing a light on the helmet is good and a small recharble battery can be used.
I don't know whether wipers can be provided on the helmet. If there is no face shield on the helmet, there is no chance for providing a wiper. But the suggestions of the author are good, and helmet-making companies may receive this positively and may try to do some R&D.

Generally I have seen that in many states of India, Sardarjis and Sardarnis are allowed to move in motorbikes and scooters without helmet, although this is equally risky for them.
But in West Bengal, members of the very privileged community are also allowed by the WB Police to ride two-wheelers without helmet. WB Police earns a lot by issuing challan to those who ride two-wheelers without helmet, but the police doesn't take any penal action if it is found that such person (who is travelling without helmet) belongs to the privileged community.

Firstly, I disagree with the statement that many Indian streets lack illumination. This would derogatorily affect the development mode we boast today. Secondly, why you need a small headlight on your helmet? Are you driving your two wheeler without headlights and signal lights? Let's say, headlights are provided in the helmets and you are comfortable with that while passing through the illumination lacked Indian streets, What about the disturbance caused to the other riders facing opposite to you?

Yes, some areas of India still lack street lighting, including national highways, newer sectors, and footpaths.
National highways
Not all national highways in India have street lighting, especially two-lane roads in rural areas.
Street lighting is often focused on high-traffic areas, like four-lane and six-lane highways.
This can impact nighttime visibility and safety for drivers.
Newer sectors
Illumination is a major problem in newer sectors.
Footpaths and pedestrian crossings
Lighting is often missing on footpaths and pedestrian crossing areas.
Other issues
Dark spots can lead to accidents.
Maintenance of street lights can be challenging and inefficient due to lack of a centralized monitoring system.
Solutions
The government has implemented policies and programs to support LED street lighting.
LED street lighting is more energy efficient than other lighting systems.
A Light Dependant Resistor (LDR) can be used to automatically control street lights.
What to do if street lights aren't working
You can register a formal complaint with the municipal authority or village panchayat

However, ensuring that all households have reliable electricity is still challenging. Not all villages still have no electricity
