In a recent development, the Provincial Department of Interior in Sindh, Pakistan, has implemented a temporary ban on pillion riding on motorcycles in various cities across the province. This decision comes ahead of significant events in the Islamic calendar.
According to official sources, the ban will be in effect on the 8th of Rabi ul Awal and during processions held on the 12th of Rabi ul Awal. A formal notification regarding this restriction has also been issued to ensure public awareness.
The cities affected by this temporary ban include Karachi, Hyderabad, Dadu, Nawabshah, Khairpur, Sukkur, Ghotki, and Larkana. The ban on pillion riding is part of security measures taken to maintain law and order during these important events.
The move aims to enhance safety and security for the residents of these cities, as large gatherings and processions can pose unique challenges for law enforcement agencies. By temporarily restricting pillion riding, authorities hope to minimize the risk of potential security incidents during these occasions.
Local residents are urged to comply with the ban and cooperate with law enforcement agencies to ensure the safety and security of all citizens. It is essential for individuals in the affected cities to plan their commutes and travel arrangements accordingly during the specified dates.
Authorities have assured that these measures are in the interest of public safety and are being implemented with the aim of maintaining peace and order during these significant events. Once the events have concluded, the ban on pillion riding is expected to be lifted.
As the specified dates approach, residents and visitors to these cities should stay informed about any updates or changes related to the ban by following local news outlets and official announcements from the Provincial Department of Interior.
