Bengaluru, Jul 2: Home Minister G Parameshwara has said that prominent cities in Karnataka will get a German model of policing and traffic management.

GermanSpeaking to media persons here on Friday the minister said: “The German state of Bavaria uses latest technology for effective management of traffic. The same model will be adopted in Bengaluru, Mysuru, Mangaluru and other major cities where traffic management has become a challenge,”

Parameshwara and a team of senior police officers from Karnataka recently toured Germany to study the policing system in Bavaria whose capital is Munich. The minister signed a memorandum of understanding with Bavarian officials for mutual co-operation in traffic management and policing.

Parameshwara said Munich was one of the safest cities in the world. A detailed study of the Bavarian system of policing was conducted during the visit. In Bavaria, top priority is given to the safety of women, children and senior citizens. They have successfully implemented a people-friendly policing system. Over 82% of the population in Bavaria is happy with the system. The same model will be implemented in Bengaluru, he said.

As per the MoU, police personnel from Bengaluru will be sent to Bavaria for training. Bavarian officials will also visit Bengaluru for this purpose. Awareness will be raised among schoolchildren on traffic and law and order with the help of Bavarian officials, he said.

The Home Minister said a coastal police training academy would be set up on 25 acres of land in Udupi with a financial assistance of Rs 100 crore from the Centre. Automatic identification system, distress roaming system, boat collar coding system, etc will be used for patrolling the entire coastline in the state, he added.

What about bribes will increase or remain the same...if policemen did not take bribes at least people will change themselves to obey the law...
At least give them better salaries to fill their stomachs than we paying to fill their pockets.....technology will not help people follow rules and expect Lisa loss of lives.....
