The Story in Brief
Bhopal traffic police will restrict access to Lal Parade Ground on August 15 for Independence Day celebrations. Entry from DB Mall Tiraha, Lily Square and Roshanpura will be closed. Buses will use Link Road No. 1, Board Office Crossing, DB Mall, Maida Mill Road, Subhash Nagar ROB, Prabhat Crossing and Bharat Talkies. General visitors can park at MVM College Ground, MLA Rest House and Jail Headquarters Ground.
During intensified security checks, police seized 12 boxes containing 600 quarters of country-made liquor, valued at about Rs 45,600, near Asaram Ashram in Gandhi Nagar. The passenger, Aman Gharu alias Babla, was arrested after the driver fled. Police said Gharu has six previous cases. A case was registered under the Excise Act, and the search for driver Kuldeep continues.
The Indian Opinion
Calling the traffic plan either a needless inconvenience or proof of a security crisis would be overstatement. A large public event needs clear diversions, while the liquor seizure is still an alleged offence, not evidence of a wider crackdown’s success. The useful test is practical: whether buses keep to schedule, visitors find the listed parking grounds, and police recover the vehicle’s driver and establish who owned the consignment.
