My incognito checks of traffic management will continue: Bedi

Puducherry Lt Governor Kiran bedi Thursday asserted that she would continue her "incognito checks of traffic management" in the Union territory and senior police officers would be held accountable for any lapses found.

Her statement comes a day after Chief Minister V Narayanasamy took exception to her "arbitrary oral" instructions to traffic police on dealing with violations of rules.

In a communmication to media, Bedi said, "Puducherry roads see a death by negligence daily on roads."
Sticking to her guns, she maintained that "law enforcement is the sacred duty of law enforcers themselves and they are squarely responsible and accountable to implement the rule."
She was of the firm view that "none can direct the law enforcers to relax a rule or go soft."
Bedi, who has been at loggerheads with the Narayanasamy-led government on various issues since last two years also said, "my incognito checks will continue and senior police officers in charge of traffic management will be held accountable as they are bound by law to perform their duty and serve."
