Delhi Police's Template To Nab Criminals
Police simply enter the vehicle's number plate into the system, revealing its entire journey.
With a few clicks, cops then reconstruct the escape route, pinpointing their location at each checkpoint. The suspects are then effortlessly tracked from the crime scene in north Delhi, for example, to their hideout in south Delhi, and caught within hours.
Thanks to a new system being implemented, this is set to be a reality in the near future.
Delhi Police will soon receive a significant technological upgrade with the integration of automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) system with their e-Beat Book application's picket checking and e-vahan search modules. The integrated system will seamlessly connect CCTV cameras and databases, making it impossible for the suspects to escape, according to sources.

"This integration will enable officers to scan licence plates in real time, allowing them to quickly identify stolen vehicles, track fleeing suspects and crack down on crime," a senior cop said.

For instance, if a police officer receives a message about a stolen vehicle, he or she can zero in on its licence plate using the integrated system and instantly receive an alert once it is spotted at any intersection. Vice-versa, the system can also scan the plates of a vehicle at any intersection using the CCTV camera installed at the spot and check if it matches the stolen vehicle database, an officer explained.
According to senior police officers, by leveraging this technology, policemen will be able to respond more quickly and effectively to emerging situations, keeping the city safer for citizens.
The integration of ANPR with the e-Beat Book application will also enable officers to access vehicle details, verify ownership and track stolen vehicles more efficiently.
Currently, law enforcement agencies rely on manual methods to track suspects, scanning footage from CCTV cameras at every intersection to identify specific vehicles or individuals. This labour-intensive process involves pouring over hundreds of hours of footage, often resulting in a time-consuming and resource-draining task.
The manual approach not only wastes valuable time, but also diverts resources away from more critical tasks, such as patrolling the streets and responding to emergencies. Investigators and analysts spend countless hours reviewing footage, trying to spot the suspect or vehicle, which can lead to fatigue and decreased accuracy.
This manual process can also lead to delayed responses, allowing suspects to potentially escape or destroy evidence.
"The limitations of manual surveillance footage analysis highlight the need for more efficient and automated solutions, such as the integrated ANPR system, which can quickly and accurately track vehicles and suspects, freeing up resources for more effective policing," a senior cop said.
Launched in Aug 2020, the e-Beat Book app has equipped beat officers with real-time access to criminal databases, facial recognition tools, and crime analytics directly through handheld devices. It also eliminates the need for cops to return to the station for record checks.

'Stung your a**': Channing Crowder torches Hallie Aiono, accuses her of using pregnancy to scam NFL star Puka Nacua
Channing Crowder torches Hallie Aiono (Image via Bleacher Report) In a jaw-dropping segment from The Pivot Podcast, former NFL linebacker Channing Crowder tore into Hallie Aiono, the pregnant girlfriend of Los Angeles Rams star Puka Nacua, following her paternity petition filed in Los Angeles County last month. The 18-year-old wide receiver, known for his breakout rookie season, now finds himself in the middle of a growing controversy that extends far beyond the football field. Hallie Aiono files for full physical custody amid paternity questions Hallie Aiono, who began dating Nacua during his college days at BYU, filed a paternity suit on June 16, requesting legal confirmation of Nacua's paternity, full physical custody of their unborn son, and shared legal custody covering education, healthcare, and financial expenses. This follows her emotional Mother's Day Instagram post, in which she wrote, 'You were something we always dreamt of, but I have never been so afraid... I can't wait to love you forever, my sweet boy.' The story took a turn after Crowder made his views clear, casting serious doubt on Aiono's intentions and character during Saturday's podcast episode. Channing Crowder doesn't hold back, calls the situation a 'spider's web' Crowder held nothing back as he speculated on Aiono's behavior and what it could have meant for Nacua's future. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like An engineer reveals: One simple trick to get internet without a subscription Techno Mag Learn More Undo He even suggested that the Rams receiver was fortunate to escape long-term financial entanglement. 'Congratulations, brother. You got out the spider's web before it stung your ass,' Crowder said. 'She helped him out with this... You don't even know who was skating in you and when you got skated in.' According to Crowder, the situation saved Nacua from potentially paying child support for 18 years. 'This was great for him. Think about it. 18 years. If he had paid for this baby and did all this—18 years. 18 years,' he emphasized. Crowder also brought cultural context into the conversation, highlighting Polynesian values of family loyalty and the pressure Nacua might have felt to stay with Aiono had he believed the child was his.

Pakistani drones back, pushing drugs & guns into India
Representative image AMRITSAR: Operation Sindoor put brakes on drone intrusions for a while but Pakistani smugglers have returned with upgraded tactics and are pushing drones deeper into Indian territory with alarming accuracy. "Post Op Sindoor, there was a temporary lull in cross-border drone intrusions. However, these activities have now resumed with greater precision as Pakistani smugglers are deploying drones that penetrate deeper into Indian territory to drop drugs, arms and ammunition," said BSF DIG AK Vidyarthi. According to sources, airdropping earlier was often close to the international border - around a kilometre in - but now Pakistani drones have been observed as far as 2km to 2.5km or even more inside Indian territory. Pak drones fly at higher altitudes near border to avoid detection A source said, 'During Op Sindoor, priorities were broader — it wasn't just about curbing cross-border smuggling but more about preventing drone and missile attacks. Smuggling activity from across the border significantly decreased since Pakistani smugglers lacked local operatives on the Indian side to retrieve dropped consignments.' But then, why have cross-border drone intrusions increased after Op Sindoor? As per sources, Pakistani smugglers have equipped themselves with more advanced Chinese drones, while the anti-drone technology deployed on the Indian border has not been as effective as it should be. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like [국가인증] 키성장 인증받은 '이 제품' 2개월치 무료증정 이벤트 곧 마감! 아이클타임 더 알아보기 Undo Currently, drones are often detected only by their sound or spotted visually, after which information is relayed to the anti-drone team. The system is then activated to jam the drone or sever its connection with the operator in Pakistan. Such interceptors should ideally be placed every few kilometres along the international border in Punjab to instantly detect an incoming drone — its direction, speed, altitude and other details — so that it can be jammed and forced into the ground, said sources. Asked why Pakistani smugglers were trying to push drones deeper into Indian territory, sources pointed out BSF had intensified patrolling and tightened security and surveillance after Op Sindoor. By sending consignments deeper into Indian territory, smugglers seek to ensure receivers (collectors) are further away from the international border, minimising the chance of being detected by BSF patrols. Nowadays, Pakistani drone pilots tend to fly drones at higher altitudes near the border to avoid detection. Once the drones cross into Indian territory, they drop to a lower altitude and follow zigzag routes to dodge surveillance. Drones are also intentionally crashed once they reach the drop zone.

UP Board: ‘PEN' mandatory for students registering in class 9, 11
1 2 Prayagraj: In a significant new development, the Uttar Pradesh (UP) Board has made it compulsory for students registering for classes 9 and 11 to provide their Permanent Education Number (PEN) for the first time. This rule affects over 28,000 schools affiliated with the board. Alongside PEN, the board also mandated that students must upload a photograph of their School Registration Number (SR or Scholar Register) during the online advance registration process. PEN is a unique identification number assigned to students . It serves as a persistent identifier throughout a student's academic journey, from primary to higher education, and is used to track their academic records and facilitate various educational processes. The primary objective behind making the PEN compulsory is to maintain a student identity and to enable better tracking of academic records over time. Meanwhile, requiring the SR number aims to curb fraudulent registrations, ensuring that only genuine students enrol in these crucial academic years. This new requirement has caused concern among thousands of parents and school authorities. It was observed that nearly 50% of students enrolling in classes 9 and 11 currently do not possess a PEN. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Columbia: Here's The Average Price of a 6-Hour Gutter Upgrade Read More Undo While students in govt and council schools generally have PENs issued, the majority of students attending private schools lack this identification. Consequently, many parents fear that the absence of a PEN may disrupt their child's education. Additional Secretary (administration) of the UP Board, Satyendra Singh, explained that the PEN system is introduced primarily to facilitate seamless tracking of students' academic progress throughout their school life. However, this policy met with criticism from teachers' associations and educators. State president of the Uttar Pradesh Secondary Teachers' Union and a former Member of the Legislative Council (MLC), Suresh Kumar Tripathi opined that making PEN mandatory is inappropriate at this stage since not all students currently do not have it. The registration process for classes 9 and 11 started on July 2 and will continue until August 5. It is important to note that two years ago, the UP Board mandated the use of Aadhaar for registration in high school and intermediate exams. However, following backlash and concerns for students' welfare, the board reversed that decision, making Aadhaar optional once again.
