The recent ‘night combing’ operation by the Ahmedabad police has sparked widespread frustration among citizens after 3,000 vehicles were seized due to missing or incomplete documentation.
The stringent drive, conducted across the city by seven police zones, Special Operation Group, Crime Branch, and Traffic Police, aimed to ensure compliance with vehicle documentation. However, the aftermath has left vehicle owners grappling with a cumbersome recovery process at the Regional Transport Office (RTO).
During the operation, which ran from Monday evening to Tuesday morning, fines totaling ₹12.82 lakh were collected from 1,684 vehicle owners. Over two nights, approximately 3,000 vehicles were impounded, and their documents handed over to the RTO for verification.
