As a pilot project, special mobile command control vehicles will be deployed in 10 districts. These vehicles will help in controlling law and order, natural disasters and riots. Equipped with hi-tech cameras, drones and wireless systems, these vehicles will also be integrated with the DGP headquarters to give live information of the situation from ground zero."

These social media centres will be equipped with state-of-the-art video wall tools. A team of eight policemen will be deployed under an inspector rank officer who will work in coordination with the DGP social media cell. Training will be given to cops deployed here by the Bureau of Police Research and Development, along with Kaushal Vikas Mission," he said.
