Rajasthan Police checked 74,000+ vehicles at 1103 points, issuing over 15,000 fines in a 24-hour statewide operation.
A total of 1103 blockade points were set up across Rajasthan for this massive operation. Additional Director General (Law & Order) V.K. Singh stated that police teams were on high alert in all ranges and commissionerates.
With cheetah-like agility, the police conducted intensive checks on a total of 74,872 vehicles. This included 39,984 two-wheelers and 34,888 four-wheelers.
During this period, 226 accused found involved in suspicious activities were arrested and sent behind bars.
This campaign was nothing short of a nightmare for traffic violators. The police issued a total of 15,083 challans, a single-day record.
Action was taken against 3,234 people for riding without a helmet and 1,648 for not wearing a seat belt. Meanwhile, 1,653 challans were issued for defective number plates.
A fine was imposed on 1,643 people for using tinted glass on their vehicles. Additionally, 385 drivers were caught for drunk driving.
Additional Director General V.K. Singh said, "This campaign was aimed at sending a strong message to criminals and strengthening the sense of security among the general public."
This was not limited to just traffic checking. The police also launched a direct assault on criminals. During the campaign, 11 vehicles were seized, and 73 new cases were registered.
The biggest success came in the Jaipur Range, where a hefty sum of ₹25.50 lakh in cash and 5 vehicles were seized.
Meanwhile, a tractor involved in illegal sand mining and a large quantity of country liquor were seized in the Bharatpur Range. Doda chura and illegal liquor were also seized in Kota and Bikaner.
This mega-operation has made it clear that criminals and lawbreakers will no longer be spared in Rajasthan. While this police action has instilled fear among criminals, the general public has breathed a sigh of relief. Such campaigns are expected to continue in the future.
