Role of civic volunteers and traffic police questioned as motorists defy traffic rules in Siliguri

Siliguri, 08th October: Questions are being raised on the role of on-duty civic volunteers and traffic police personnel after several motorists were spotted defying traffic rules. It has been alleged that civic volunteers and traffic police personnel are playing the role of ‘silent spectators’.


A few days ago, the traffic department of Siliguri Metropolitan Police has taken special initiatives to clear traffic congestion in the city. Roads from Siliguri Hospital More to Children’s Park and Hakim Para Bhutia Market More were made ‘One Way’ and ‘No Entry’ boards were put up. Besides, traffic police were deployed in every area. However, the scenario has changed after a while.

According to traffic police sources, several motorists ply on the restricted routes and argue with the police personnel when questioned.
