The Delhi Police closely monitored the national Capital during the Holi festivities to ensure public safety. They conducted checks on dark-tinted vehicles, enforced drunk-driving regulations, and issued fines for traffic violations in various areas. In Paschim Vihar, extensive security arrangements were in place to maintain peace, with Police Commissioner Satish Golcha overseeing security measures and commending officers for their efforts.
Similar security measures were implemented in Govindpuri, where police conducted special operations against drunk driving and fined violators with dark-tinted windows. In Laxmi Nagar, East Delhi, strict actions were taken against traffic offenders, including bikers without helmets and those violating traffic rules. Vehicles lacking proper documentation were impounded on the spot.
In the Shakarpur police station area, traffic violators near Laxmi Nagar Metro Station were issued fines to prevent accidents and ensure public safety during the festive celebrations. This enforcement followed heightened security measures by the Delhi Police ahead of Holi, including increased deployment in sensitive areas and border checks to maintain peace.
Police also preemptively addressed proclaimed bootleggers and collaborated with local security committees to enhance preparedness based on past incidents. Despite the colorful celebrations of Holi symbolizing good prevailing over evil and the onset of spring, the police presence was noticeable to ensure a peaceful conclusion to the festivities.
