The police who should be regulating the traffic and avoiding trouble for the city dwellers are creating a new problem. There will be heavy traffic on city roads from 7 pm to 10 pm with people going home after work. As if this is not enough, the police have been conducting Drunk and Drive checks at an appropriate time and blocking traffic everywhere, forcing motorists to wait for hours in traffic.

Traffic police are showing great enthusiasm when it comes to Drunken Drive inspections. Roads are being blocked and inspections are being carried out in various major parts of the city by 7 pm. Vehicles are being blocked with barricades in the middle of the road. This will stop the traffic for kilometers. Motorists had previously complained to superiors about the same thing, they responded and issued orders to conduct drunk and drive checks after 9.30 pm. However, these orders are not followed and they perform arbitrary Drunk and Drive checks.

Four days ago, traffic police conducted a check on Drunken Drive in front of Koti ENT Hospital around 7:30 pm. For this, barricades were set up in the middle of the road, and traffic was stopped. This caused a huge traffic jam from the Koti bus stand intersection to the Abids post office signal. Many motorists are blaming the traffic police for stopping traffic on the way home after work.
