The Railway police has just realised that most of the CCTV cameras at Chhatrapati Shivaji Terminus (CST) have been placed at the wrong angle. While this may sound funny, it is anything but.

Around 300 CCTV cameras are installed at CST. There are nearly nine entry/exit points at the station, but in eight such strategic points, CCTV cameras are not fulfilling their function. A top official stated that they realised that in many cases, a culprit cannot be seen entering or even leaving the station premises. It happened because the CCTV cameras were not placed at strategic points. The Railway Protection Force (RPF) and the Government Railway Police (GRP) met recently and decided to realign 65 cameras.
