To prevent incidents of obscene activities in Delhi Metro, Delhi Police has decided to deploy more than 100 personnel in civilian clothes, a report published in The Indian Express (IE) said. To this end, deployments will be made based on pre-identified stations.
An official aware of the development was quoted in the report as saying that the personnel on duty will complement the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) staff, and CISF officials in prosecuting offenders on the spot and take subsequent legal action if required.
The decision has been taken considering the increase in incidents of “public obscenity” inside metro compartments.
