He also encouraged those affected by the road closures to use public transportation and strictly advised road users to not park their vehicles on the designated routes.

“By obstructing traffic, you risk getting summoned or having your vehicles towed away. No exceptions will be made during the celebrations. Traffic offenders will be dealt with. We mean business,” he said.

DSP Markandan said 85 traffic policemen would be on duty along the routes to ensure smooth traffic flow and keep road users safe at all times.
