New traffic movements in pipeline:
“We’ve often found violators repeating the mistakes. To curb the flourishing irregularities, we’ve decided to seize the vehicle of the violator for one day and asked them to correct their share of drawbacks, only then they will be handovered the vehicle. Nagpur Traffic Department has formed 20 flying squads in this regard. 10 teams will focus on strict enforcement of the norms while 10 will keep an eagle-eye on vehicles causing traffic chaos,” he said.
