After the Bombay High Court pulled up the state government as well as contractors for not installing CCTV cameras at police stations by March 2022, the state has installed 30 now. One third of the total police stations in the city now have CCTV cameras installed inside and on their premises. Work is on to install them at other police stations soon.

There have been demands for CCTV cameras in police stations, especially in detection rooms and lock-ups, as sometimes citizens complain of high-handedness and police brutality. It was also seen that many complainants who come to register their plea end up having heated arguments with police officers. To monitor all this constantly in police stations, they were asked to install CCTV cameras.
