Udupi Police Introduce Locked House Monitoring System
By ETF Desk
The Udupi City Police Department announced the launch of its 'Locked House Beat System' on Saturday. Officials said the system employs real-time monitoring of residential properties to detect untimely entries. A briefing in the station hall highlighted that the initiative is part of a broader digital policing strategy.
Referred to by Deputy Commissioner Mahesh Bhat, the system links CCTV feeds with a central command centre, enabling rapid response to suspicious activity. They argue that increased surveillance of locked homes will curb theft and burglary, which rise during holiday periods.
Residents in Udupi can expect quicker police response times and greater deterrence against crime. The department plans to involve community members in reporting possible threats. Source: Google News – Udupi.
