Malegaon, Dec 6
As crimes are on rise in the city, Malegaon Police, in an attempt to control them, are seeking cooperation from the citizens. The initiative 'One Camera for Police' is being implemented in the city. Citizens have been urged to install CCTV under this initiative.
Malegaon city is known to be highly sensitive. Accordingly, efforts are made at various levels by the police administration to maintain law and order. A part of it is the concept of a camera for the police to curb the increasing number of vehicle thefts, house burglaries, chain snatching, and other thefts. The police administration has appealed to the public to implement this concept too.
Various shopkeepers, businessmen, schools, colleges, government establishments, power-loom operators, and factory owners in the city should install CCTV cameras in their establishments that also face the roads and public places. Inappropriate behaviour can be identified, caught and eventually prevented by this, as it will give great support to the police administration.

One of the CCTV cameras installed by schools, colleges, and commercial firms should be for the police to prevent any untoward incident in the city and prevent crime. This will help avoid inappropriate behaviour while also helping the police. People should respond to this concept.
