The city police conducted operations at various locations within the Attariya market, resulting in the confiscation of approximately 2 sacks of plastic garlands and associated religious paraphernalia.

Assistant Inspector Mohandev Pant of the city police reported that the confiscation took place over the weekend, with two bags of plastic flower garlands removed from the market area.
