A team of 53 police personnel of the traffic wing, along with other police officers, will be conducting this drive from 9 am to 11 am and 5 pm to 7 pm at different checkpoints in Palghar district.
A special flying squad will also be a part of this drive, said District Traffic Incharge Asif Baig. The police will be insisting on the use of helmets rather than imposing fines and make use of helmets habitual for the two-wheeler users, he added.
