Cops Get the Sour Taste of Social Network


Bangalore: If you have been ill treated by any cop in town or find it hard to deal with them and been thinking of how to speak your mind about the police and their way of doing business, now there is a solution to all your concerns. You can give any suggestions or file complaints on cops misbehaving, even tips on crimes or related information just by logging on to the social network which is assured to yield results.

Bangalore Police has taken an initiative to start an online interactive site for the people. So fret no more. This site will be the tool to keep a watch on city police, from the citizen point of view. It will also help the police to keep a better surveillance with the information posted by people about any conniving act or threat to the city. This seems like a win-win situation both for the people and the cops. It’s just a matter of time before we find out how far this might work.

Bangalore police commissioner BG Jyothi Prakash Mirji said "Citizens can host their grievances, suggestions, tip-offs and complaints against anyone through Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, Pinterest, LinkedIn and Foursquare, and blogs, forums and online communities. We have assigned eight personnel for monitoring these social media round the clock. Complainants will be provided feedback" as reported by TNN.
