Cops across the city have increased their vigil against gambling after receiving strict orders from Commissioner of Police Arup Patnaik. The commissioner asked his troops to be more alert during this festive period in the month of Shravan, as more people tend to gamble during this period. However, he has asked his troops to be careful and take sufficient precautions before raids, as those who gamble during this time include several high-profile citizens.

Tightening the nooze: Arup Patnaik has also asked the authorities to keep an eye out on women’s kitty parties. File pic
