JAMMU: In light of the increasing incidents of thefts and other criminal activities in Jammu city, Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) Executive Member Raman Suri has strongly emphasized that the police’s decision to install CCTV cameras must be implemented on the ground. While acknowledging the administration’s good initiative, he stressed that it should not remain confined to paper but should be carried out with full commitment.
Suri remarked, “The increasing crime rate in Jammu, including murders, robberies, and thefts in broad daylight, highlights the urgent need for surveillance. Installing CCTV cameras in key locations such as public spaces, business establishments, banks, places of worship, and other vital areas is crucial to curbing these activities.” He pointed out that previous plans, including those by the Jammu Municipal Corporation to install CCTV cameras, had remained only on paper and had not translated into action.
“While the government has issued instructions many times in the past, the willpower to implement these decisions was lacking. The rising crime rate clearly indicates that stronger measures are needed to address this issue,” Suri added. In light of Jammu and Kashmir’s security concerns, Suri emphasized the importance of CCTV systems in creating a secure environment for both locals and visitors.
“Surveillance will act as a deterrent to criminals and assist in the quick identification and apprehension of offenders. However, the success of such initiatives also depends on increased police vigilance. The people of Jammu deserve to feel safe in their own city, and the police and administration must work together to eliminate the fear created by rising crime.” Suri also urged business owners and residents to cooperate fully in the effort to install CCTV cameras outside their shops and homes.
“This is not just for the safety of individuals but for the safety of the entire city. Cooperation from the people of Jammu is crucial for the success of this initiative.” He concluded by stressing that it is essential for the authorities to ensure that the CCTV installation is completed within the stipulated time frame, sending a strong message to criminals that Jammu is committed to ensuring the safety of its citizens.
