Gurugram, Dec 20 (IANS) In order to curb accidents on the Delhi-Jaipur Expressway, the Gurugram traffic police have started a special campaign against those driving on the wrong lane.
As part of the campaign, the traffic police have issued 8,377 challans so far this month, including 414 through drones.
Meanwhile, a total of 25,039 challans for driving in the wrong-lane worth more than Rs 2.3 crore have been issued so far this year by the Gurugram traffic police.
