CCTV footage prevents potential conflict in Rourkela.
In Rourkela on Friday, the citizens and CCTV cameras worked together to prevent a major law and order issue on the eve of Ganesh Puja. With just one day left until the celebrations, the locals and organizers of the Daily Market Puja pandal were shocked to find the head of a calf near the pandal in the early hours of the morning. The market, known as Sabji Mandi, is a popular spot for vegetable wholesale trade.

As soon as the news spread, a large crowd gathered near the pandal. Thankfully, there was no tension and everyone decided to inform the police and wait for their investigation. The police arrived quickly and retrieved the animal body part, launching an investigation to determine how it ended up in that location. After conducting a spot investigation, the police turned to the CCTV footage from nearby shops, as well as the cameras temporarily installed by the puja organizers for crowd control and safety. To everyone's relief, the footage revealed that stray dogs had brought the animal body part to the pandal area.

SDPO Zone 1 Nirmal Chandra Mohapatra stated, "We wasted no time in utilizing the CCTV footage to establish the facts of this sensitive matter. While reviewing the footage, we discovered that stray dogs had found the animal body part elsewhere and carried it to the pandal before leaving it there." He also mentioned that they would address the issue of the increasing stray dog population and the problems they cause, such as traffic and litter, with the Rourkela Municipal Corporation.

This incident is not the first issue caused by stray dogs in the area. Recently, two people were bitten by stray dogs near the Daily Market. A member of the puja organizing committee commented, "The railway lines run near the area, so it's possible that the calf was hit by a train and the stray dogs dragged its body parts here."

All in all, the situation was handled calmly and efficiently thanks to the cooperation of the citizens and the use of CCTV footage. It's important to address the issue of stray dogs and their impact on the community to prevent similar incidents in the future.
