To make policing more transparent, the Police Control Room (PCR) and Traffic Police personnel in Bathinda have started wearing body cameras.

While distributing the cameras, Bathinda SSP Jyoti Yadav on Tuesday said the cameras will record both audio and video.

“This will help officers keep a record of their activities, collect better evidence and ensure transparency when dealing with the public," she said.

The police said the cameras will encourage professional behaviour and help in fair and effective law enforcement.

The police also said they are committed to using modern technology to provide transparent, efficient and citizen-friendly services.
