The Bengaluru Safe City Command Centre built under the Nirbhaya Fund, touted to be the first such for the city, was inaugurated by Chief Minister Siddaramaiah at the Bengaluru City Police Commissioner’s office here on Friday.
Mr. Siddaramaiah said that chain snatching, atrocities on women and murders are on the rise in Bengaluru, and to control such illegal activities, the centre should be properly utilized.
Mr. Siddaramaiah received a distress call from a woman from Banaswadi who had called to complain about a robbery. A staff member later attended the call, took the necessary details and assured to send the Hoysala team for further assistance within 7 minutes.
