Haryana: Odd-Even formula started for auto and e-rickshaw in Panipat, will get relief from traffic jam

News Topical, Digital Desk : To provide relief from the ever-increasing traffic jam in Panipat city, the police administration has started the 'odd-even' initiative for autos and e-rickshaws. Under this, special arrangements are being made in the city to make the traffic system smooth. The police administration has started a 7-day trial for this. Officials say that if this experiment gives good results and gets the support of the public, then it will be implemented permanently.

The main objective of this new system is to make the city jam-free, control road accidents and provide easy and safe traffic facilities to the common people. This scheme can change the picture of Panipat city in the coming time.

Odd-even scheme for autos and e-rickshaws

DCP Traffic Suresh Saini said, "In the monthly meeting of the District Road Safety Committee, it has been decided to implement the odd-even scheme for autos and e-rickshaws. This decision was taken because the number of autos and e-rickshaws in the city is very high, and it was necessary to run the traffic smoothly. This scheme has been implemented from today (September 01)."

Odd-even scheme started on trial basis

He further said, "Under the scheme, odd number vehicles will run on one day and even number vehicles will run on the other day. This process will continue like this. This scheme has been started as a trial for one week. Further decision will be taken based on its results.

Action will be taken against those who violate the law

The DCP also said, "Legal action will be taken against those vehicles which are running without number plates or those who have not put the unique number sticker provided by the Municipal Corporation and challans will be issued. However, in the initial days, people are being explained about this rule and at present challans are not being issued." DCP Saini believes that this scheme will provide relief from the problem of traffic jams.
