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.

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.....
