News Desk

RAWALPINDI: In a bid to enhance security and streamline passenger management, the Rawalpindi Police have announced the introduction of an e-ticketing system at local bus stands.

This initiative, utilizing the Travel Eye app, aims to maintain a digital record of passengers ahead of the ICC Test Championship series scheduled from November 9 to 13.

The police will also implement the Hotel Eye app to monitor guests at hotels, guest houses, and inns.

This dual approach is designed to facilitate the tracking of visitors and ensure that law enforcement can efficiently identify and apprehend any wanted criminals entering the city via public transport or staying in local accommodations, according to a police official.

The decision was made during a meeting chaired by Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Operations Malik Tariq Mahboob, which included representatives from the Regional Transport Authority, Counter-Terrorism Department, Special Branch, and City Traffic Police.

The SSP emphasized the importance of these measures in bolstering security during the high-profile cricket event.

As the first Test match between Pakistan and Sri Lanka approaches, the police are set to enhance surveillance and security protocols across the city.

This initiative not only aims to ensure the safety of attendees but also reflects a broader commitment to modernizing law enforcement practices through technology.
