Elaborate traffic arrangements have been made to ensure the safety of motorists on roads, they said. ”The Delhi Traffic Police has made elaborate arrangements. The traffic police personnel will be deployed at major roads and intersections. The traffic teams will be deployed in different areas. We request you all to follow traffic rules during the Holi celebrations. Do not indulge in drunken driving and triple riding on two wheelers and riding without a helmet,” Joint Commissioner of Police (Traffic) Vivek Kishore said. A DCP-level officer said special pickets will be placed in several areas and action will be taken against people selling illicit liquor. ”We have deployed special pickets today and tomorrow (for Holi) in various districts. Police are identifying the mischief mongers and preventive actions are being taken against them. Extra force will be deployed, patrolling will be intensified,” he said.

“Police will also interact with people so that no untoward incident takes place. Actions will be taken against those who found drinking in public places,” he added.
