OLD GOA: The Old Goa Police Station has launched an intensive traffic-clearance drive to remove roadside obstructions and ensure smooth vehicular movement along the Kadamba Highway. The drive began on 13 November 2025, continued on 14 November, and will remain active through the coming weekend.
According to police, the operation aims to facilitate uninterrupted traffic flow for the convenience and safety of the general public.

The ten individuals apprehended over the two days have been placed under arrest under Section 34(iv) of the IP Act for causing obstruction and disturbing vehicular movement.
