The Delhi Police has rolled out an intensified enforcement plan as part of a citywide road safety campaign on New Year’s eve, an official said on Wednesday.
Stating that the drive is aimed at preventing accidents and ensuring public safety during New Year celebrations, he said, strict action will be taken against those who violate traffic rules.
According to a senior officer, additional personnel have been deployed across the city, especially at party hotspots, busy markets, major intersections, arterial roads and vulnerable stretches prone to congestion and accidents.
“A comprehensive plan has been drawn up to ensure public safety, prevent accidents and deter violations that could endanger lives,” the officer said.
Multiple integrated checkpoints have been set up at strategic locations to check drunk driving and rash behaviour, while special teams will crack down on bikers performing stunts, drivers speeding, and groups attempting to create public nuisance, he said.
