Surveillance is being stepped up around busy streets, while undercover officers, including female personnel have been assigned to patrol popular tourist spots. Authorities have warned of tough action against motorists who indulge in acrobatic stunts and disrupt traffic flow. They are also urging residents to plan well ahead for long distance trips, and to keep a close watch on children.
