Society for Cyberabad Security Council (SCSC) distribute­d helmets to traffic cops at Gachibowli traffic police station on Wednesday as a part of social responsibi­lity.

Traffic cops have issues due to prolonged exposure to air and sound pollution.

Due to this, most traffic police personnel get health issues like joint pains, asthma, chest allergies and others.

SCSC with the Sponsorshi­p of Synechron has distribute­d Helmets to all traffic police cops.

Urooj Kamal, the Local Administra­tive Head of Synechron, said, “Our management is very concerned about the safety and security of not just our employees, but also police personnel, especially the traffic police who serve long hours standing on the roads in all seasons.”

Speaking on the occasion, Deputy commission­er of police Cyberabad, Vijay Kumar, advised the traffic police to wear helmets, as it is a moral responsibi­lity of the traffic cops. He said, “It is not that the traffic police cannot afford a helmet, but it is their responsibi­lity to wear a helmet and be a role model

Kumar further added that, it is a good sign that the IT companies have started realising the services of traffic police.

“Society for Cyberabad Security Council (SCSC) have supplied high density pollution mask, provide regular health checkups and basic life health training regularly,” said P.C.S. Reddy, Associate Director of SCSC. for the public.”
