Hyderabad Police Bind 1,020 for Election Conduct

Hyderabad Police Crack Down: Over 1,020 Persons Bound Over for Election Conduct

In Hyderabad, the police have made sure over 1,020 people with criminal records behave well during the elections. They’re keeping an eye on troublemakers like history sheeters and rowdy sheeters. Last year during the Assembly elections, they did this for over 4,000 people.

They’ve also been busy executing arrest warrants, taking care of almost 500 of them already. Around 155 warrants are still waiting to be dealt with. They’re working hard, even forming special teams to handle warrants from other states.

To keep things fair, they’re keeping tabs on violations of the election rules too. They’ve already caught 47 cases of people breaking the rules and confiscating stuff like cash and drugs worth a lot of money.

Hyderabad Malls: Security Lapses Put Visitors at Risk

Hyderabad Malls, Eateries Ignoring Security Guidelines, Leaving Visitors Vulnerable

Despite established guidelines and a recent incident in another city, many popular establishments in Hyderabad are failing to implement proper security measures, putting visitors at risk.

The recent bomb blast at a Bengaluru eatery serves as a stark reminder of the importance of security, yet numerous malls, multiplexes, and eateries in Hyderabad appear to be disregarding established safety protocols.

A closer look at popular spots reveals concerning oversights:

Tolichowki’s Yusuf Tekri: This bustling street with numerous eateries lacks basic measures like walk-through metal detectors or security personnel using handheld devices, despite the heavy evening footfall.
DLF stretch at Madhapur and Durgam Cheruvu: These crowded areas also lack security measures beyond occasional police patrols. The functionality of surveillance cameras remains unclear.
Old City hotels: While these establishments have cameras, they lack physical access control, allowing individuals with potentially malicious intent to enter freely.
The Telangana Public Safety (Measures) Enforcement Act – 2013 mandates physical and technical access control for such establishments. While police can take action against violators, a former officer highlights the current focus on surveillance over preventative measures.

A senior police official has assured that local authorities will address the security concerns and take appropriate action.
