"We introduced 40 more traffic police mobile motorbikes provided by Hero Company as per its Corporate Social Responsibility (CRS) activities," Soumendra Priyadarshi, Twin City Police Commissioner, said. "Huge congregation is expected this year as the Hockey World Cup is being played in Odisha for the 2nd Time. Traffic management would be a challenging task for the police.
