Goa Traffic Police Face 40% Manpower Shortfall Amid Rising Vehicle Numbers

Goa's traffic police are facing a significant manpower shortfall, with a 40% deficit reported by officials. The shortage comes as the number of vehicles on the roads has risen sharply, putting additional pressure on the limited police workforce. Authorities say the increased traffic volume has strained existing resources, making it harder to maintain road safety and enforce traffic regulations. Efforts to recruit more officers are underway, but the gap remains a pressing concern for the state's transport department.
