Allahabad HC pulls up UP police over defunct CCTV and generator at police station
NEW DELHI: The Allahabad high court, in an order dated July 28, held that non-functional generators, solar panels and CCTV cameras at police stations amount to a "dereliction in discharge of duties" by the Superintendent of Police. Observing that police stations are sensitive establishments which requires uninterrupted power, the court directed the Uttar Pradesh DGP to ensure all police stations across the state have functional backup power systems and CCTV cameras.
