ITP helped 4,400 distressed road users in one year

Islamabad Traffic Police (ITP), during the current year, provided help to around 4,401 distressed road users whose vehicles had been broken down on various roads of the city or they had faced other problems such as running out petrol or fuel or CNG gas, said an ITP spokesman here on Thursday. He said the ITP help unit, which had been working round-the-clock in different shifts provided assistance to a large number of road users. He quoted Senior Superintendent of Police (Traffic) Dr Moeen Masood as saying that the ITP officers and jawans had been working to facilitate road users and provide them help in case of any emergency on roads.
He said the road users, facing any problem, could call at 1915, the help unit’s contact number, so that they could be provided immediate assistance. He maintained that the policing was a service-providing job and every possible effort was being made to maintain a close liaison with the people. He said the ITP help unit helped repair 2,675 broken down vehicles, helped change 256 deflated wheels, pushed another 333 vehicles and provided tow service to 78. SSP Dr Moeen Masood has lauded the services of the ITP officials and told them to continue serving the fellow citizens.
