The Udupi district police have today officially launched the E-beat system in all its 20 police stations. It is known to all that the police beat system was so far working in the age old method of police constable making visits to the prefixed beat points wherein they would sign on a beat book hung at that place along which the time of visit. The problems with this system was that it was not fool proof with beat PCs able to write their own timing on the book irrespective of the actual time they visited the spot.
Now with the start of the E-beat system the police officer on beat duty would carry an electronic reader with him and the beat books at the beat points have been replaced by electronic tags fixed at the beat points. When the beat PC reaches his beat point all he has to do is to bring the reader close to the tag and automatically the visit of the PC to that spot is recorded in the reader along with the actual time. After having visited all the beat points in his beat, the PC returns to the police station and downloads the DATA in the reader, on to the computer. This information is then verified and checked by the officer in charge of the police station.
The technology developed and supplied by the State Crime Record Bureau, Bangalore has been installed in the entire district and is functioning well.
The district police have now done away with the old system of books being hung at beat points and illegible entries being made in them by beat PCs with a weak system of cross check on them.
On the whole 1750 tags have bean fixed at various beat points in the entire district.
