Police to penalise drivers not wearing masks
In December alone, Telangana police issued 58,578 e-challans for face mask related violations across the State.
Of them, 14,596 challans were issued by the Hyderabad city police to those who were not properly wearing or not wearing masks in adherence to COVID-19 protocol.
With a sudden spike in COVID cases and several Omicron cases, police have once again intensified the ‘No Mask’ drive rule and started issuing contactless and spot e-challans to violators in the State.

The draft policy for “Responsible Digital Use Among Students”, released on Monday by the Department of Health and Family Welfare, has recommended that parents set structured routines with clear screen-time rules and prioritise privacy, safety, and open conversation with children on digital well-being.
