Hyderabad: A high-end four-wheeler carrying an ‘MLA’ sticker was spotted parked in Prakashnagar, Begumpet with a fancy registration plate carrying the number AP2 AB 2222.
The vehicle was spotted by Mr Hari Satya Sandeep, a social media user who often shares pictures of traffic rule violation on the Facebook page and Twitter handles of the Hyderabad traffic police. Mr Sandeep said the car with MLA sticker was not parked properly and its fancy number plate was a violation of the rule.
“When I checked its challans on the Hyderabad traffic police e-challan portal there were no pending challans. They may have cleared the challans but in that case they would have changed the number plate if they were fined for it,” Mr Sandeep said.
Asked about this, Dr V. Ravinder, joint commissioner Hyderabad traffic police, said, “As we have received the complaint we will look into the matter and will take action accordingly.”
Mr Vinod Kanumala, chief functionary of the Indian Federation of Road Safety, said, “Abuse of rules by LAs is very common. The law makers are the primary law breakers.” He said he had noticed a barcode number plate on a car in the city.
