With Eid-ul-Fitr around the corner, SSP Traffic Rural Kashmir Ravinder Pal Singh on Tuesday directed all Dy.SPs and Divisional Transportation Inspectors (DTIs) across Kashmir to establish special checkpoints in order to curb the bike stunts on the festival.
R P Singh while talking to the news agency CNS said that the decision to put up special checkpoints in Kashmir was taken as there is a high likelihood of a spree of bike stunts to be seen on the occasion of Eid.
“Therefore, we have directed all Dy. SPs and DTIs in Kashmir to establish special nakas so that the bike stunts can be curbed, helping in saving previous lives,” said SSP Traffic Rural Kashmir.
He said rash driving and other traffic violations including bike stunts are often seen taking place during the festivities.
“To prevent any loss of life and keep this Eid free from road accidents and fatal bike stunts, we have given direction for erecting special checkpoints,” R P Singh said. (CNS)
