The Nagpur City Police have extended the ban on heavy vehicles entering city limits to ease traffic congestion and ensure public safety during the festive period. The order, issued on October 7, 2025, will remain in effect until further notice. According to the Traffic Department, the restriction applies to trucks, trailers, and other large transport vehicles during peak hours within major city areas, including Sitabuldi, Sadar, Itwari, and Central Avenue. The measure aims to reduce road blockages and improve the movement of public and emergency vehicles amid the Dhammachakra Pravartan Din and Dussehra celebrations. Essential supply vehicles—such as those carrying fuel, milk, and medical goods—are exempt from the ban. Police have warned that violations will lead to strict action under the Motor Vehicles Act. Authorities also announced additional personnel deployment at key intersections and the use of AI-based traffic monitoring systems to enforce compliance and manage diversions smoothly. #NagpurTraffic #HeavyVehicleBan #NagpurPolice #CitySafety #TrafficUpdate #NagpurNews #Dussehra2025 #DhammachakraPravartanDin #UrbanMobility #NagpurUpdates
Over about 20 days, Nagpur city police launched “Operation Thunder” and dismantled six drug syndicates operating across the city, arresting 11 suspects and seizing narcotics worth around ₹60 lakh. The busts included large quantities of ganja and the synthetic drug mephedrone (MD) in multiple raids. This crackdown is significant because it targets networks that were reportedly influencing local youth. The police are continuing investigations, trying to track down suspects still at large, and hoping these actions will deter further drug trade in the region. #Nagpur #DrugCrackdown #OperationThunder #AntiNarcotics #Mephedrone #GanjaBan #CitySafety #YouthProtection #LawEnforcement #NagpurPolice
