Parking and traffic rules in India are one big mess. The implementation of the rules and regulations also becomes a problem when the top brass of our lawmakers don¡¯t bother to follow rules. But Hyderabad Traffic Police has set an example for the rest of the country to follow.
On November 15, 2018, a Hyderabad traffic police officer fined the Additional Commissioner of Police for parking his vehicle in a no-parking zone. A journalist tweeted about this and informed Hyderabad Police about the same:
Hyderabad Traffic Police replied to his tweet with a photo of the challan issued under the name of Anil Kumar, Additional Commissioner of Police.?
Giving a statement, Anil Kumar said: ¡°I was on a visit to Makankali Traffic Police Station in the afternoon of November 15. And it was not in my notice?that my driver has parked my vehicle in the no-parking zone. As?soon as it came to my notice after a person tweeted?the picture of my vehicle parked at No Parking. Immediately I informed my officials to issue a fine on my vehicle and I asked my driver to pay for it.?A fine of Rs 235 was imposed for wrong parking and was immediately paid.¡±
