Contractor fined Rs 10K for chaos at parking lot in Chandigarh

Chandigarh, September 11

For the second consecutive day, the paid parking contractor (zone 2) was fined for haphazard parking.

Vehicles were found parked in an unorganised at the Sector 9-D parking lot following which an MC inspection team issued a Rs10,000 challan to the contractor. However, the team found that employees were in proper uniform, staff was deployed inside the lots, e-ticketing was being done and LED screens were working. Chains and cones ensured smooth traffic flow.

Yesterday, vehicles were found parked in haphazard manner at the Mobile Market in Sector 22 and the Sahib Singh parking lot in Sector 17. A challan of Rs20,000 was issued to the contractor.

As per MC Commissioner Anindita Mitra, the contractors have by and large implemented the smart features they were asked to. However, suitable action was to be taken wherever haphazard parking was found. —TNS
