e-beat monitoring launched Panchkula, April 25 This is for the first time in North India that e- beat, a technology-based patrol system, is being introduced on an experimental basis. The aim is to ensure that the patrolling in Panchkula area by the beat patrolling staff and Police Control Room vehicles
(PCR) is regular. It has also been decided to introduce e- beat points at the residences of senior citizens living alone. According to the Superintendent of Police, Ms Charu Bali, “It is a cost-effective solution to monitor the police beat system. It uses radio frequency technology.” During the first phase, the system is being introduced in 20 sectors of the township. In each sector, e-beat points at five different locations will be set up. Tags, electronic cards of the size of a visiting card and having an electronic circuit, will be implanted in the walls of houses at five specially selected points in each sector. The patrolling staff will be given another palm-size gizmo (called reader), which they will be required to be swiped near the card in the sector each time they cross the point. The timing and date will automatically get recorded in the reader. This information will then be read out using a computer. The scheme has been introduced in Sectors 2 to 11, 12-A, 14 to 19, 21, 25, Mansa Devi area, Industrial Area (Phase I and II).
