Hyderabad: Section 144 Imposed Near Lok Sabha Counting Centers
In preparation for the counting and declaration of the Lok Sabha election results, Section 144 of the Criminal Procedure Code (CrPC) has been enforced within a 200-metre radius of the counting centers in Hyderabad.
This measure, enacted to ensure public safety and order, prohibits the assembly of five or more persons in the designated area. The order, issued by City Police Commissioner K. Sreenivasa Reddy, will be in effect from 6 a.m. on June 4 to 6 a.m. on June 5.
Section 144 grants authorities the power to issue orders in urgent cases to prevent nuisance or potential danger, thereby maintaining peace and preventing any disruptions during the crucial election process.
