Summary:
HYDERABAD: Panjagutta police have started a pilot project for patrolling the streets on bicycles.

The initiative was launched on Monday at Somajiguda, covering the narrow streets around Yashoda Hospital, as part of visible policing measures. It will soon be extended to BS Makhta, MS Makhta and Yellareddyguda.The street bicycle patrolling has a motto to reach every corner, at a slower pace to ensure the visibility of a patrolling team cop in crowded narrow lanes for a longer duration.
