KATHMANDU, July 21: The Quick Response Team (QRT) from the Lalitpur Metropolitan City Police has been provided with five electrical scooters for quick services in the metropolis.

Mayor Maharjan mentioned that even small things can make a big difference and that even if buying electric scooters for the QRT was a small thing, it would have a big impact. He said that the work of installing CCTV cameras at various places was being done by realizing the importance of security at a time when the concept that ‘Patan city does not sleep 24 hours’ is being taken forward.


The LMC mayor said that the metropolitan city is now working on purchasing an ultramodern fire engine. He also said that teams with scooters will be deployed to monitor parking, traffic jams, remove unauthorized advertisements and hoarding boards placed against the standards and take action against any illegal activities.
