The record
Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- Bengaluru has begun shifting 11,346 old vehicles that had been parked for years outside police stations to seven designated sites in the city.
- Minister Krishna Byre Gowda launched the relocation drive on Wednesday, with the police and revenue departments working together.
- The vehicles include abandoned ones towed from roadsides as well as seized vehicles kept in police station premises.
- The vehicles cannot be disposed of immediately because many cases are still pending in court, so they will be parked securely elsewhere until the cases are settled.
- The relocation is expected to clear footpath obstructions and ease movement for pedestrians and traffic around police stations.
What to watch next
- Whether all 11,346 vehicles are shifted within the one-month deadline set by the government
- Progress of the pending court cases that decide when the vehicles can finally be disposed of
- Further clearing of footpath encroachments and abandoned roadside vehicles across the city
