After series of scuffles, Ludhiana cops to set up checkpost in Old City market

LUDHIANA: After a series of clashes in Old City, especially in Division 3 area, the police plan to come down heavily on miscreants.
The cops have identified that youngsters gather at street vendors’ market—from Mohar Singh Nagar Chowk to Hargobind Nagar Chowk—in the evening and often indulge in fights.
To check it, Division 3 police will establish a checkpost in the market daily.
Besides, the police also plan to access the private CCTVs installed in the area for surveillance.
On Monday, Division 3 SHO sub-inspector Madhu Bala, along with her team, was present at a checkpost set up near the market.
Additional deputy commissioner-I Pragya Jain said, “For the past few days, miscreants have been creating nuisance and disturbing law and order in the area by indulging in scuffles.
We have lodged FIRs and arrested nine accused, including three minors.
However, this is not enough to maintain peace here.
We have to work proactively to prevent such scuffles.” “I have received feedback from residents that there is a street vendors’ market near Hargobind Nagar where several youngsters gather every evening.
Almost every day, they indulge in fights that often snowball.
For at least 10 to 15 days, cops will be deployed near the market in the evening,” she added.
“We also want to ensure CCTV surveillance in the area.
Until we get CCTVs installed there under the safe city project, we urge residents to provide access to their private CCTVs installed outside their houses to the police.
I also urge people to WhatsApp me any suggestion or complaint related to law and order in their locality on 7837018503.
They can send me audios, videos or locations where they find anything suspicious,” said the ADCP.
