Ban on Drones and Firecrackers in Ludhiana; Administration Issues Warning Against Stockpiling

Hey there! Time to get the lowdown on what's going down in Ludhiana. Since you asked so nicely, here's a straightforward rundown of the recent announcements by the Deputy Commissioner, Himanshu Jain. Buckle up!

First things first, Jain's given a firm "no" to the use of drones in the city, whether it's for a big fat Punjabi wedding, a social bash, or any other event. There are no exceptions to this rule. Also, forget about lighting up the skies with firecrackers, as those are now banned to maintain order and security. But don't worry, Jain's got your back! He's been working closely with defense authorities to guarantee the safety and security of all residents in the district.

Now, hoarders beware! The DC has warned that anyone caught hoarding essential items like food, medicine, fuel, or other essentials with the intention of profiteering will not be tolerated. The district administration is, in fact, carefully monitoring hoarding activities. If found guilty, the consequences are severe – legal action under the Essential Commodities Act and penalties like confiscation of goods and potential criminal charges.

But why the crackdown on hoarders? Well, the DC emphasizes the need to prevent exploitation of fear among the populace. To quash any rumors or misinformation causing panic, the district administration has pledged to take stringent action against hoarders and those spreading fake news or false rumors. To avoid getting caught in these shenanigans, Jain suggests relying on verified information from the Ludhiana DC's official social media handles on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter.

To tackle emergencies, an emergency control room has been set up at the District Administrative Complex. Jain advises residents to contact 0161-2403100 or the emergency helpline 112 in case of an emergency situation. He also stresses the importance of community cooperation and vigilance to ensure smooth coordination during this time.

To support the security efforts, the DC has issued a stern directive regarding the mandatory blackout guidelines, which require all residents, institutions, and establishments, including hotels, marriage palaces, liquor vends, restaurants, and shops, to switch off all lights during the blackout period. In case of emergencies, black curtains must be used on windows to ensure compliance. Violators will face strict action, and the administration has warned they'll take punitive action.

In summary, the focus is on maintaining peace, ensuring public safety, and discouraging panic through strict compliance with these directives. So, remember, no drones, no firecrackers, no hoarding, and stick to verified information to stay in the know and avoid trouble!
