The streets watchers would be deputed at streets and sub-sectors which would assist police in its efforts to curb crime.
They would inform police in case of any suspicious activity in their respective area and keep a vigilant eye on security guards and domestic servants. Moreover, Street Patrol Units/Contingents and Air Petrol Unit have been constituted to ensure protection to curb crime.
