As a result of the rising number of thefts and robberies in Borivli's IC Colony, the local police have begun an awareness campaign in housing societies. Posters listing precautions to take and required contact numbers of police officers, etc. have been put up in residential buildings besides awareness through the managing committees of the housing societies.

The MHB police station which covers IC Colony has revived this old practice of awareness campaigns with housing societies to garner active support of residents to prevent robberies. While efforts are already being taken by the police along with residents and local corporator for holding night vigils, this is another step to ensure that all citizens are alert.
