Drunk drivers beware! City cops get 443 breathalysers

As New Year's Eve approaches and crowds prepare to celebrate, Ahmedabad city police are prioritising law and order. Their focus is on preventing drunk driving and other potential disturbances.

Police sources say 443 breathalysers have been allocated for use across the city. One hundred of these devices will be assigned to the traffic police to catch drunk drivers. However, there are concerns about whether this number is sufficient to manage the large crowds expected in popular areas like SG Highway, Sindhu Bhavan Road (SBR), and CG Road.

Venues under scrutiny

The police are also paying close attention to hotels, party plots, and private farmhouses on the city's outskirts.
