State Home Minister Vangalapudi Anitha has conducted inspections of the surveillance network on Beach Road in Visakhapatnam. Going on foot for a stretch of 1 km on 24 October night, the Home Minister enquired the accompanying police officials about the measures taken for the safety of beach visitors.

Stating that medical college students brought certain issues to her notice in the past, Anitha said the alliance government was committed to the safety and security of women. More CC cameras were being installed in hospitals for enhanced security, said said. No rowdy-sheeter would be allowed to stay in the city, she warned.

“Now the police are working with commitment and dedication unlike during the previous government,” she observed saying that the people were watching it.
