The control room can be reached through three helpline numbers.
This was revealed at a meeting chaired by the divisional commissioner Ashok Sangwan in Gurgaon on Monday, July 15, where the issue of drainage of rainwater was also discussed at length.
According to officials, apart from the control room, Traffic Police has started a traffic helpline number via which commuters can alert police about traffic congestion.
