Parking Violators Will Be Towed Away

After the High Court’s orders, the police are actively towing away vehicles parked haphazardly at different points in the city. Over the last week, these drives have extended to five different locations, targeting those who park on the roads, causing traffic disruptions, or engage in towing. Violators may face fines imposed by the police, urging residents to be mindful of their parking choices.

The police are vigilant about drug-related offenses, collaborating with NCB and SOG for thorough checks. Individuals found using drugs at parties will face strict legal consequences, including arrests and legal proceedings.

Deterrence Against Drink and Drive

Driving under the influence of alcohol is being closely monitored by the police. The police commissioner has announced a reward of INR 200 for reporting instances of drink and drive. Checkpoints with breath analyzers have been set up across various parts of the city, and individuals caught driving under the influence will face immediate legal action.
