NEW DELHI: Lauding the enforcement wing of Delhi's
transport department
for its role in ensuring road safety, state transport minister
Kailash Gahlot on Wednesday flagged off 30 new
Toyota Innova
vehicles for the unit.
"The enforcement wing has been active participant in all major road safety and environment related initiatives in Delhi, including both editions of odd-even drive. Even during Covid-19 lockdown, we saw movement of people being strictly monitored by the department," Gahlot said after flagging off the
vehicles
from Rajghat Cluster Depot.
"Today, we are adding 30 more vehicles to the transport department for strengthening the enforcement duties. I also urge all vehicle users in Delhi to be aware of their duties as responsible citizens and ensure compliance with road safety rules and pollution guidelines. Together, let us strive for a cleaner and safer Delhi," Gahlot said.
A statement from the minister's office said that these vehicles will be helpful in checking violation of permit conditions, overloading, environment compensation charges, environment checks as well as to save loss of human life due to pollution caused by such vehicles.
