Indore: Despite the implementation of the police commissioner system in Indore, Madhya Pradesh’s financial capital, criminal activities show no sign of decreasing. Thieves and goons in the city seem emboldened, with incidents of burglary even targeting the bungalows of high-profile figures such as ministers and judges.

In the latest incident, a daring theft occurred at the bungalow of Cabinet Minister Tulsi Silawat and a judge in Indore. The theft involved the disappearance of a valuable sandalwood tree from the premises. A concerned employee, stationed at the minister’s bungalow, promptly reported the incident to the Sanyogitaganj police.

In response to the report, the Sanyogitaganj police have initiated an investigation, combing through nearby CCTV footage in an attempt to trace the stolen sandalwood tree from both the minister’s and the judge’s bungalow. The incident unfolded in the upscale Residency area of Indore, where prominent residences, including those of the collector and commissioner, are situated.

This incident has raised questions on the security provided by the police officials as this is a high-incident case. With the residences of ministers and judges falling prey to criminal activities, doubts have been cast on the safety and protection offered to common citizens’ homes.

This incident highlights the urgent need for enhanced security protocols to safeguard the homes of not just influential individuals but also the general public. Residents of Indore are rightfully seeking reassurance that their safety and property are adequately protected in light of these escalating criminal activities.

Local authorities must address these security lapses promptly, reassessing their strategies and implementing measures to combat the increasing audacity of criminals in the city. Heightened vigilance, enhanced surveillance, and efficient response mechanisms are essential to restore public confidence in the security apparatus and ensure the safety of all residents in Indore.
