Penalties for many civic offences up sharply in Delhi

Delhi government proposes a tenfold increase in penalties for civic offences like public urination and littering, aiming to deter violations. The Jan Vishwas Bill seeks to replace token fines with sharper monetary penalties, making enforcement stricter and more relevant for a growing city. Imprisonment provisions for minor civic offences are also being removed.
