I thought this might interest some of us. rene ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo NT News Service Vasco, Aug 22: The Vasco police will shortly introduce bicycles for patrolling, which will be limited within the city. The concept of patrolling by bicycles is an innovative idea in Goa and the Vasco police will be the first to implement the system. The concept of patrolling by bicycle is not new to the Delhi police and it has helped to solve various cases related to theft during the night. The deputy superintendent of police, Vasco, Mr Dinraj Govekar and Vasco PI, Mr Sammy Tavares had put forth a proposal to grant bicycles meant for patrolling. In all eight bicycles have been sanctioned by the police headquarters. “Patrolling by bicycle will save petrol and will help bring efficiency in the police department,” stated Mr Tavares. Subsequently, patrolling by bicycles will be intensified in eight police beats. Presently there are two beats in cities and one each in New-Vaddem, Vaddem, Mangor-Hill, Dabolim, Bogmalo and Baina. Besides patrolling by bicycles, the Vasco police will also intensify patrolling with the help of seven motorcycles, two jeeps and one PCR van. ============ ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= ========= _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list Goanet@lists.goanet.org http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
