'Dial 112', says traffic police as ex-cop reports high parking ticket rate
06-December-2021

Delhi Police's former Joint Commissioner, Suvashis Choudhary who was
reportedly charged Rs 300 for a parking ticket in south Delhi, raised
the issue with the Delhi Traffic Police on Monday, but only got a
perfunctory response to his complaint - initially.
The former cop
had tweeted: "The parking at #HauzKhasVillage are fleecing people.
Charging Rs 300/car. Also refused to give the receipt. It's public land
& they can't cheat citizens. DCP Southwest and Delhi traffic Police
should send decoys- if found correct they should move for cancellation
of their licence by South Delhi Municipal Corporation."
To this,
the Traffic Police asked the former senior police official to contact
the Delhi Police control room at 112 or "concerned police station in
this regard".
The "inappropriate reply" went viral on social
media after which they deleted it. After over three hours, the Traffic
Police again replied to Choudhary's complaint, but this time, were more
courteous than before.
"Thanks, your complaint is being forwarded to senior officers," the second response read.
Deputy Commissioner of Police, Southwest, Gaurav Sharma, too, from his official account on Twitter, assured action on the complaint.- IANS
