During a special road‑safety operation from Sept 20‑26, Delhi traffic police issued more than 10,000 fines, with the majority for wrong‑way driving and 917 vehicles found with black film on windows.
Delhi traffic police launched a focused enforcement drive from 20 to 26 September aimed at improving road safety and traffic discipline across the capital. Over the six‑day period, officials recorded more than 10,000 traffic violations and issued corresponding fines.
The data released by the police shows that the most common breach was driving in the opposite direction on one‑way streets, accounting for the largest share of penalties. In addition, officers inspected vehicle windows and identified 917 cars fitted with a black film that reduces visibility, which also attracted fines.
Authorities said the campaign is part of a broader effort to curb reckless driving and reduce accidents. The police have urged commuters to adhere to lane markings, obey traffic signals and keep windows clear to ensure safer streets for all users.
