Oct. 12: A local temple committee is working on a new idea to prevent crime, maintain traffic order and cleanliness on the Gummanakolli-Harangi route under the jurisdiction of Kushalnagar Municipality.
The Bayalu Basaveshwara Temple Committee in Gummanakolli, Kushalnagar has arranged surveillance in this area by installing CCTV cameras.
CCTV cameras have been installed on the route from the temple to the fire station. The required electricity connection is being obtained through solar panels.
Surveillance: This route, which is wide and full of trees and less crowded, is a favorite area of local air travelers. But those who throw garbage on the roadside were causing harm to the environment here.
The problem of uncontrolled garbage is one of the reasons why the committee has initiated this project to control activities like chain-stealing and wheeling, says Sudeep, the president of the temple committee and a coffee entrepreneur.
20 cameras in 8 places: A total of 2 km. 20 cameras have already been installed in 8 places. Surveillance is being carried out by operating solar battery cameras day and night.
The scenes captured in the cameras are being shared with the committee including Kushalnagar Town Police Station, the municipality office and are being reviewed when necessary.
Fine: If garbage is found spreading in this area again, such people will be identified and action will be taken against them and a fine of Rs. 5,000 will be imposed. In this regard, notices have been posted everywhere. A total of three cases have been detected so far and the individuals and vehicles that littered have been identified and handed over to the Kushalnagar Rural Police Station, said Sudeep, the temple committee president and businessman who is in charge of the project. It is special that some cases of theft of vehicles and cattle have also been detected through this system.
Kodagu District Superintendent of Police Ramarajan has also taken note of this system and has expressed appreciation for the work of the leaders of local organizations.
Now, a plan has been made to permanently curb such cases by installing state-of-the-art technology cameras in strategic areas of highways and rural roads in Kushalnagar town and neighboring villages with the cooperation of the owners, said Kushalnagar Police Circle Inspector Dinesh Kumar.
He informed that cameras have already been installed in Guddehosur, Kushalnagar Industrial Estate, and Suntikoppa Highway.
