Coimbatore: As Coimbatore grapples with scorching temperatures that have recently exceeded 100 degrees Fahrenheit, both the public and the traffic police on duty are experiencing considerable discomfort. In response to the relentless sun, special hats were issued to the city's traffic police on April 24th to provide some much-needed relief.
