Early Times Report
DODA, May 11: District Doda is the first district in the UT of J&K to establish Village Surveillance Committees (VSCs) in all the 400 revenue villages under District Surveillance Committee to keep vigil on the unlawful activities and take timely action to prevent any damage to the precious lives, property, law & order and the social fabric of the society.
In this regard, District Magistrate, Vishesh Mahagan, along with SSP, Abdul Qayoom convened a virtual meeting of the stakeholders to sensitise them of their critical role in maintaining the peace in the district especially in the rural areas.
The VSCs comprise of Lumbardars, Chowkidars, VDG members, prominent citizens of the village and the revenue officials. The VSCs report to the District Surveillance Committee headed by DM & SSP.
The SSP Doda also interacted with the VSCs and asked them not to take law in their hands while dealing with the anti- social or anti- national element and instead report to the concerned agency/ police station or police chowki timely. He assured the members that their identity shall not be disclosed so as to avoid any threat to them (Informer).
He appealed to all the members and agencies involved in the surveillance teams to work in a synchronised manner to keep the district safe and protected from the elements inimical to peace and brotherhood.
The DM, while interacting with the VSC members, urged them to volunteer themselves for crucial, active, pensive, & coordinated efforts to defeat crime from society. Crime in the shape of drug trafficking, theft, bovine smuggling, efforts to revive militancy, anti- social, and anti- national activities are major threats to the society hampering its overall development, he said. The responsible citizens must put coordinated efforts to fight against the criminal elements in their society. DM has urged the VSCs to report any abnormal/ untoward incidence or presence of any strange person in their areas. DM has directed the concerned to re-constitute some of the VSCs where the members don't show their volunteer interest in the fight against the common enemies of the society.
