Authorities plan to set up 36 CCTV cameras around Salimgarh to monitor traffic flow and detect suspicious activities.
Local officials have announced that a network of thirty-six closed‑circuit television cameras will be installed around the Salimgarh area. The deployment aims to improve public safety by providing continuous visual coverage of key traffic junctions and public spaces.
The cameras will be positioned to monitor vehicle movement, identify congestion points and help authorities respond quickly to any irregular or suspicious activity. By feeding real‑time footage to a central control room, law‑enforcement agencies expect to enhance their ability to prevent incidents and manage traffic more efficiently.
Installation work is slated to begin shortly, with the equipment sourced from approved vendors and overseen by the municipal and police departments. Once operational, the system is expected to serve as a deterrent against crime and aid in smoother traffic management during peak hours.
Residents and commuters have been informed that the surveillance will be limited to public areas and will comply with existing privacy guidelines. The initiative reflects a broader push by city authorities to leverage technology for safer urban environments.
