Mangaluru, Aug 5: Police commissioner Kuldeep Jain said that the police will take up drives on various issues like auto-rickshaws collecting excessive fares, bus missing routes, and buses with loud speakers. He also said that the department would conduct programme over mental health issues for the elderly through home visits.

He was speaking during the police phone-in programme on Saturday August 5. Several callers across the city complained about auto drivers taking excessive fares, need of mental health awareness programme for the elderly and children.

The police commissioner also said that over 600 cases are filed over unnatural deaths due to suicide, drowning and other reasons. He also noted that the suicidal rate is high among children.

“I will also write to the NHAI and Mangaluru City Corporation to paint the zebra crossing spots and also the RTO to take action against auto rickshaws over excessive fare,” said Kuldeep Jain.

Many callers complained about traffic issues, shrill horns, parking issues on Bejai-Kapikad road, urged to make the court road one way to avoid traffic congestion, parking on footpath, cock fight at Aikala and conductors not issuing bus tickets.

As many as 33 calls were attended by the police commissioner during phone-in programme.

    Apart from shrill horns, irregular parking that too in a helter-skelter way, extrafitting to bikes which creates loud sound etc. shoould not be allowed on roads. The irritating loud sound specially by youngsters cant be tolerated. These so called bikes roam around, Nandigudda Valencial Fr. Mullers and Kaprigudda roads which irritated all aged persons walking and staying on roadside houses a lot. Our Commissioner is reqired to take suitable action on such cases and completely stop this kind of activities.

    How about refurbishing and beautifying the State Bank Public Bus Station instead of the present shanty condition. Let all the private bus owners contribute for their betterment and for its public safety and comfort.

    Who will ensure that Mangalore police personnel function without bribes? Who will ensure police behave in a civilized manner and are approachable to common citizens?? What is the use of zebra crossings if motorists never allow pedestrians to cross?

    Sir in Shaktinagar , opp. Police quarters , it's difficult to walk without closing nose. The people driving 2 wheelers and 4 wheelers dump trash everyday. Kindly instal cc tv and catch the culprits. When people have courage to dump trash in front of police quarters how police dept can control these type of people.

    Take strict action against four wheelers and 2 wheelers parked on Vas Lane in front of gate. The road widening has given chance for vehicles to park and made the road narrow. Full time deputation of cops is required here. Stop wasting time of cops on Bunts Hostel to PVS Circle stretch. There is plenty of road width there two park vehicles opposite side of VRL /Durgamba offices. More important is Unity Hospital area . They have given merely 4 ft for road widening and take the full advantage by parking vehicle on either side. Probably more influential people? Also take care of mess at Avery junction near Malbar Gold, Falnir.

    If someone parks in front of gate, take a photo and send it to traffic police. It amounts to obstructive parking Section 122 of Motor Vehicles Act. Fine with be collected from the owner and he will not park again.
