Karachi Traffic Police Deputy Inspector General (DIG) Ahmed Nawaz has instructed against issuing fines to commuters rushing home from 5 pm until iftar throughout the month of Ramadan.
He has directed all traffic officers deployed in the metropolis to prioritize maintaining smooth traffic flow to ensure citizens reach their homes in time for iftar.
Additionally, the DIG has ordered traffic officials to allow those traveling with their family members to proceed with a warning instead of receiving a challan. However, the focus will remain on enforcing one-way regulations to prevent road accidents and traffic disruptions.
DIG Nawaz has also urged citizens to avoid parking rickshaws, cars, and motorcycles at turning points. He emphasized that officers without body-worn cameras will not issue challans and instructed traffic officers and cops not to stand together on the roads. Strict compliance with the fast lane at Sharea Faisal will be ensured, with motorcyclists directed to stay in the by-lane.
