As the state has been witnessing an increasing inflow of foreign tourists, the Police Department has decided to enhance the activities of the tourist police.
The steps to modernise the tourist police force will be started soon.
The department is also planning to install surveillance cameras for the security of tourists at major destinations across the state.
“There are frequent complaints that tourists are disturbed and cheated by the local people.
Though tourist police has been formed to look after the security of tourist destinations, its functioning has not become full fledged so far.
The force will be modernised with advance equipment.
Additional posts will also be sanctioned,” sources said.
The proposal to install surveillance cameras has been submitted before the government.
The cameras will be connected to a control room set up for the security of tourists
