People who want to get a CCTV camera installed on their house’s outside wall under a Delhi government project will have to give an “undertaking” to provide electricity for the functioning of the device.
The government will give subsidy to such people on the power consumed by the CCTV camera, according to legislators of the ruling AAP in the national capital. As per the government’s decision, 1.4 lakh CCTV cameras will be installed across the city under the project, which aims to ensure women safety in Delhi.
