to effectively check non-heinous crimes including steps such as installation of CCTV cameras in buses and at public places, improvement of last-mile connectivity from Metro stations,

initiating programmes for awareness and education, suitable action for lighting identified darks stretches etc," a statement from L-G House said. Baijal further asked the Delhi Police

to conduct an objective analysis of the causes and effects of any increase in incidences of non-heinous crimes in particular localities so that an effective strategy could be evolved to

check them promptly. He also directed them to increase the visibility of police personnel on roads and have targeted patrolling, particularly in the identified crime hotspots. They were

advised to explore facilitating online registration of all non-heinous crimes as far as possible. "This would not only facilitate speedy registration but also make it easier for the

Delhi Police to examine and analyse various facets of these crimes. He also asked the transport department to explore the possibility of having Himmat Plus App of Delhi Police as a mandatory

licensing condition of TSR/taxi as this would bring in much-needed synergy in the efforts to promote women safety," the statement further added. CASE STUDY * Lieutenant Governor Anil
