Summary:

Iffath Fathima ByExpress News ServiceBENGALURU: In a bid to curb traffic bottlenecks, City Police Commissioner Bhaskar Rao on Saturday decided to rope in more traffic wardens and expand the workforce from 390 to 2,500. Traffic police inspectors were instructed to meet resident welfare association groups and ask them to enrol themselves. However, the wardens will have to pay for their own uniforms and will not be paid for their services. Manju Mehra, a traffic warden who has been volunteering in Whitefield for five years, said, “This is a good move. If there are more people to volunteer, handling traffic will be easier.”.
