Ban on Guwahati rallies to ease traffic snarls
Guwahati: The Guwahati police commissionerate has implemented an immediate prohibition on all rallies and gatherings under Section 163 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, to facilitate smooth traffic flow and reduce difficulties faced by commuters within the city. Deputy commissioner of police (administration) Imdad Ali issued the directive, highlighting worries about severe traffic blockages and public difficulties caused by such events. The directive emphasises the importance of effective road management to ensure unobstructed movement of vehicles and pedestrians in the city. The directive indicates that events such as rallies, walkathons and marathons have been causing congestion issues, which not only affect regular traffic but also impact emergency service response times. According to the order, any breach will face penalties under Section 223 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023, which addresses non-compliance with public servant orders. The directive includes a provision allowing affected parties to submit written objections requesting cancellation or adjustment of the order. Local residents have voiced their opposition to this decision. Anindita Sarkar, from Lalganesh, said, "A total ban feels kind of extreme. While there are other reasons for the traffic situation in the city, the police should scrutinise every possibility. A simple gathering cannot be a reason." Rajkumar Deka, another resident, said this is absolute inhumane and does not make sense, since it is putting a restriction on someone's right.
