Installation of CCTVs

Sir,
Refer news item ‘Istall CCTV to track down traffic rules violators’ DE Jan 23.
The intention behind installing CCTV at important  junctions to track down traffic rule violators is laudable. But a question remains? Will the system as proposed by Chairman Legislative Council Amrit Malhotra work if we put before us the failure of traffic signals that were installed in the city after people demanded for the same. The system failed miserably only after one or two months. The ill conceived project was not only a wastage of money, but also an example of  how lightly we treat such a serious issue. There is an urgent need that planners find a suitable mechanism to streamline the traffic system in the city keeping the future needs of people in view.
Delaying the project will only give rise to numerous problems which in future may make life difficult in the city.
Jammu  is a  growing city so are its needs. And growing traffic is one of the problems that has to be considered on priority by the people of Jammu Traffic Police.
Yours etc….
