Siliguri, 25th April: The Jalpai More Traffic Guard has once again initiated a campaign against encroachment, successfully clearing the stretch from Siliguri Thana More to Mahabirsthan. As part of the operation, goods kept on roadside footpaths were removed, and illegally parked vehicles were also towed away.
According to reports, the IC of Jalpai More Traffic Guard issued warnings to individuals violating the rules, stating that strict action will be taken against repeat offenders. He further emphasized that drivers found parking their vehicles illegally will be issued challans.
Additionally, the department has sought cooperation from local businessmen to ensure the roads remain completely free from encroachments.
The initiative comes in response to ongoing issues faced by pedestrians due to footpath encroachments and frequent traffic jams caused by illegal parking along the busy route. The campaign aims to ease pedestrian movement and improve traffic flow in the area.
