Pant said he had given instructions for vehicle checks after 10 am starting Tuesday, seizures of vehicles will be made only from Wednesday onwards. On Day 1 (Tuesday), police educated people and warned them.

People on the night shifts should show their ID to the on-duty police. Additional steps to strictly enforce the curfew will be in place, including deploying more policemen on MG Road and surrounding roads, Koramangala, Indiranagar, and other areas where revellers congregate to celebrate New Year.

All commercial establishments must close at 10 pm and people must get home before the curfew begins. Cases will be registered against people violating the curfew, Pant added.
