He inspected traffic arrangements and asked the police officials to properly maintain the road dividers by painting them white colour. He also asked them to properly synchronize the traffic signals at the squares. He said that the roads near the squares need to be widened so that vehicle riders or drivers can take left turn without difficulty.
