The Delhi Police issued over 1,300 challans, including for drunken driving, on New Year’s Eve across the national capital, officials said on Friday.

According to the police, 26 challans were issued for drunken driving, 174 for dangerous driving and 706 for unauthorised parking.

The total number of challans issued is 1,336, and 221 vehicles were towed away, they said.

Police said traffic congestion and violations noted were much less this time.

What began as an irreverent internet joke has acquired the unmistakable weight of a political movement.

Student groups and Opposition workers formed a sizeable crowd, but the promised procession towards Parliament never emerged as one organised march.

These electric vehicles will bolster the sanitation fleets of the Rohini, Narela, Civil Lines and Keshav Puram zones of the MCD.
