Additional DCP south west zone, Mohd Ashwaq, said the police have been instructed by the higher officials to act tough against the commercial establishments particularly hotels, juice centres, and bakeries that operate late in the night beyond the stipulated time.
“Youth are getting corrupted due to the late night practice of hanging around hotels and eateries. Law and order issues are cropping up time and again. Cases will be booked against the management and all of them remanded if they fail to adhere to police directive,” said the officer.
