Came across following news items in last few days. First one is from Oct 13, Saturday, Mumbai edition of Times of India which mentions that Mumbai police has also started this exercise. I was wondering if anybody in Mumbai has come across this team.

There was also a separate news item from Hyderabad of police taking action from 25 Oct onwards - article gives an impression that they will target only those that have dark films, where VLT is lower than permissible limit.
