Section 144 imposed

Chandigarh, April 11th, 2016: It has been observed that the SIM card vendors in the city of Chandigarh are selling SIM cards of all cellular companies to the people without seeing the original ID’s of the purchasers and without getting the verification of the documents, physical verification of person’s address, done. The vendors issue SIM cards to the buyers by filling up Performa of the cellular company and the same is sent to the company. The company activates the SIM without making any physical verification of the documents/address of the customers. The SIM cards are sold to distributors by the cellular company and the distributor further sold these to shopkeepers without maintaining the record as to which numbers are sold to which shopkeeper. Further, the shopkeeper has kept vendors to sellout the SIM cards directly to the customers.
                                        
It has also come to the notice that many times criminals and anti-social elements procure mobile SIM cards on fake identity and therefore can cause social disturbance and pose a threat to peace and tranquility through their un-lawful activities and go un-noticed due to their fake identities.

Sh. Ajit Balaji Joshi, IAS, District Magistrate, Chandigarh, exercising the power vested under section 144 of Cr.P.C., do hereby order the following:

1.     It would be mandatory for all mobile SIM card distributors/sellers/vendors to provide information as per Annexure ‘A’ to the Chandigarh Police within 15 days of imposing of this order at Chandigarh Police Headquarters, Sec-9, Chandigarh or on Chandigarh Police website: www.chandigarhpolice.nic.in.

3.     It would be mandatory for the mobile SIM card purchaser to inform/intimate his new address to his/her cellular company within 07 days in case he/she changes his/her address.
4.     It would be mandatory for the pre-paid and post-paid mobile SIM card distributors/sellers/vendors to physically verify the original documents of the concerned buyer.
Annexure ‘A’ & Annexure ‘B’ shall be obtained from Chandigarh Police department.
 This order shall come into force from zero hours on 08.04.2016 and shall be effective for a period of sixty days up to and including 06.06.2016.

In view of the emergent nature of this order, it is being issued ex-parte and is addressed to the public in general. This order shall be promulgated by announcement through publicity vans and by affixing copies thereof at the notice board of the court of the District Magistrate as well as the District Courts, Chandigarh.
