New Delhi: Forty eight hours before the roll out of the odd-even scheme, the Aam Aadmi Party government met Delhi Police Commissioner BS Bassi to discuss some major issues.
Bassi said Rai has assured him that around 5,000 to 6,000 volunteers will be pressed into service to help police but they will not act independently.
The decision was reached at a meeting Delhi Police Commissioner BS Bassi had with the state's Transport Minister Gopal Rai.
"The volunteers will not be acting independently. They will be attached with government teams, which might be headed by SDMs, transport department officials or teams of Delhi Traffic Police. The transport minister has assured us that around 5,000 to 6,000 volunteers will be at our disposal," Bassi said.
Rai said the earlier decision to impose repeated fines was to effectively deter people from flouting provisions of the odd-even scheme.
