The room for a permanent police outpost at the new bus terminus in Vellore town has been completed but is yet to be put to use.
The space, which has been provided by the Vellore Corporation, comes nearly two years after the bus terminus was opened by Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, on June 29, 2021. Civic body officials said the proposal for the new outpost was tabled before ward members for approval at a council meeting. “The space for a new police outpost at the new bus terminus is ready and will be opened soon,” said a senior Corporation official.
At present, only a few personnel from private security companies are deployed on a rotational basis to ensure the safety of commuters and Tamil Nadu State Transport Corporation staff.
