Vizag Bars on Notice: Police Crackdown on Noise, Drugs, and Minors
Visakhapatnam Police Commissioner recently convened a crucial meeting with bar and pub owners across the city, delivering stern warnings against noise pollution, illegal parking, drug peddling, and serving alcohol to minors. This move underscores a zero-tolerance stance amid rising complaints from residents about nightlife disturbances in areas like RK Beach, MVP Colony, and Jubilee Hills
Owners were directed to enforce strict closing times, verify staff backgrounds through police clearance, and install noise monitors to curb late-night blaring music that disrupts neighborhoods. Violations could trigger license suspensions or closures, prioritizing public safety and family-friendly evenings.
This initiative balances vibrant entertainment with civic order, reassuring locals while urging owners to self-regulate. Compliant venues could earn "safe nightlife" badges, boosting business through positive word-of-mouth.
Tourists and youth should support ethical spots, and residents can report issues via police apps. Vizag's nightlife thrives when responsible
