Chennai, March 4 Coimbatore police have initiated measures to take down social media accounts of rowdy elements operating in the city.

The police have zeroed in on the social media accounts of three rowdy groups namely Kamarajapuraam Gowtham, Thellavari group and Praga brothers.

Sources in Coimbatore police told that steps are being taken to remove the social media accounts of these groups and have written to 'Meta' platform for taking action against them.
