Five externals were also detained for being in the vicinity, according to Hooda. Externalees are persons who have been ordered to remain away from a certain location for a specific amount of time as punishment, as opposed to BCs, who are those who have several criminal charges pending against them.

Police confiscated 28 grammes of heroin, two stolen gold chains, 4,419 quarters worth of illegal alcohol, 72 beer bottles, a stolen motorbike, six button-activated knives and other items from some of these persons who were detained and during the other searches.

The heightened barricading of city routes and greater street checking will continue until July 10, according to the police. Dependra Pathak, the special commissioner of police for peace and order in Zone 1, which consists of eight districts, said that we would “take criminal elements by surprise” and get their field agents acclimated to “a greater level of alertness.”

The incident follows a string of robberies, including the most recent heist by four armed men last week near the Pragati Maidan tunnel. On Monday, approximately 9,000 soldiers deployed at 475 new pickets to begin the special checking and patrolling exercise, and roughly 800 persons were placed under preventative detention.

For the fiscal year 2024–2025, the Municipal Corporation of Faridabad anticipates an increase in its budget of around 20% in order to fund the completion of infrastructure projects under the engineering branch. As the municipal body prepares to embark on large-scale projects pertaining to civic infrastructure, including as roads, sewage, water supply, and solid waste disposal, the authorities have requested funding of around Rs 250 crore for the next fiscal year, according to MC sources. After 24 villages were added to the MC’s authority last year, its total service area increased by more than 15%. As a result, the city’s municipal authority will need more funding to build the necessary infrastructure and to maintain the current system of streets, sewers, and water supplies. According to an official, the city’s municipal ward count has increased from 40 to 45 due to the population growth. A budget of Rs 15 crore has also been requested by the municipal body for the horticulture division, which maintains the parks and green spaces in most of the districts. Although the total population living within the civic limits is estimated to be around 20 lakh, more than 60% of the civic areas are still maintained by the MCF. This is true even though the state government established the Faridabad Metropolitan Development Authority (FMDA) in 2021–2022 to distribute the cost of the city’s development projects. Approximately 133 sq km of the approximately 343 sq km that make up the MC area have either been moved or are in the process of being transferred from the Municipal Corporation of Faridabad (MCF) to the FMDA, according to sources. The FMDA would handle all of the key development projects, the state government had said last year. According to sources in the government, the agency has been formulating plans for a range of development projects pertaining to roads, sewage, water supply, drainage, and transportation, with a potential total cost of up to Rs 800 crore for the next fiscal year. MC Chief Engineer Birender Kardam said that while further funding has been requested, the civic organization is still seeking government permission. For horticulture, Rs 15 Cr After 24 villages were added to the MC’s authority last year, its total service area increased by more than 15%. Due to the increase in population, the city’s Municipal Corporation ward count has increased from 40 to 45.
