Udupi, Feb 1: Setting aside oppositions and objections received against its proposal, the district administration has gone ahead and made the Car Street area in the city a vehicles-free zone from Sunday January 31 onwards.
Gates have been set up at all the entry points of Car Street to control the movement of vehicles.
The vehicles that used to be parked in Car Street so far, have now been given parking slots at various points near the Car Street. The vehicles moving in through different roads have been instructed to be parked at the specific parking areas marked for the purpose.
The Swamijis of the eight Mutts have thanked the district administration for issuing the ban order on the entry of vehicles into the Car Street, because of the threat perception to the area from terrorists.
