Delhi Police Commissioner B S Bassi warns AAP volunteers against vigilantism in implementing odd-even from 1 Jan.
Delhi Police top cop today warned the Aam Admi Party volunteers against any form of vigilantism saying they should “assist” and “act as told” while the police force enforces the odd-even scheme from January 1.
Delhi Police Commissioner B S Bassi took to Twitter to send his message to the Delhi government and Aam Admi Party volunteers.
The top cop also instructed the volunteers to report to Delhi Police, following which they shall be briefed and deployed as per an action plan.
The scheme, set to roll out from 1 January, 2015 for fifteen days, has been proposed to curb pollution in the national capital by restricting movement of private vehicles based on their registration numbers.
