In order to prevent issues for drivers during nighttime, Gurugram DCP Traffic has instructed not to issue challans to vehicles following complaints received during vehicle checks. If required, higher authorities’ consent must be sought before the challan can be issued, according to the letter DCP Traffic issued.
“Traffic Inspectors are ordered to command all the employees appointed under them in their jurisdiction that no vehicle should be stopped at night and no challan should be issued,” Deputy Commissioner of Police Virendra Vij wrote in a letter dated May 28. In that case, if issuing a challan to a driver in accordance with the M.V. Act is absolutely necessary, the challan of that vehicle should be issued as per rules only after bringing it to the notice of the concerned gazetted officer/undersigned and obtaining permission.”
The DCP has also issued a warning, stating that any police officer who disobeys the regulations will face harsh consequences.
“Strict adherence to the directives is required. The letter further stated, “Strict departmental action will be taken against the concerned traffic police officer as per rules in case of negligence and carelessness with immediate effect.”
To guarantee efficient traffic flow during the night in the Gurugram district and address the difficulties encountered by the general public when traveling by road, night traffic police officers were dispatched.
