Home minister Rajnath Singh reviews security situation in Jammu and Kashmir

Home minister Rajnath Singh arrives in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir.(HT Photo) Union home minister Rajnath Singh, along with National Security Adviser Ajit Doval, arrived here on a two-day visit to review the security situation in the state. This is Singh’s first visit to Jammu and Kashmir after the imposition of governor’s rule last month. Singh chaired a high-level meeting of officials at Hari Niwas where top personnel from the army and paramilitary, and administrative officers participated. Singh was briefed about security in the state, especially in the Valley and south Kashmir, and the situation along the Line of Control (LoC). He was accompanied by Doval, Union home secretary Rajiv Gauba, and joint secretary J&K Gyanesh Kumar. The officials briefed Singh on security for Amarnath Yatra and the impact of resuming operations after a month of unilateral ceasefire in the month of Ramzan. Singh also held a meeting with Governor NN Vohra and discussed security issues, developmental projects and issues related to the youth. Last month, Singh had visited the state and chaired a high-level meeting of officials when unilateral ceasefire was in place, along with former chief minister Mehbooba Mufti. He also visited north Kashmir’s Kupwara district where he held meetings with delegations and addressed a sports conclave in Srinagar. Since that visit, not only has the BJP withdrawn its support from the PDP, forcing Mehbooba to resign as chief minister, even the state has come under governor’s rule. Since then, eight militants, three civilians, and three policemen have been killed in different incidents of violence. During his stay in Kashmir, sources said Singh will not meet any mainstream leader or leaders from the BJP.

The Edward Snowden Interview Closed-circuit television In recent years, the use of body worn video cameras has been introduced as a new form of surveillance, often used in law enforcement, with cameras located on a police officer's chest or head. Video surveillance has generated significant debate about balancing its use with individuals' right to privacy even when in public. Special cameras for some of these purposes include line-scan cameras and thermographic cameras which allow operators to measure the temperature of the processes. With the addition of fixed cameras for the active traffic management system, the number of cameras on the Highways Agency's CCTV network is likely to increase significantly over the next few years. The cameras send the feed to a central control center where a producer selects feeds to send to the television monitors that fans can view.  New York C...

Security company in Bellevue vandalized

BELLEVUE, Neb. (KMTV) - An Omaha home security company based out of Bellevue is using its own camera to help track down a thief who stole items from outside their building. Chris Malmberg, the owner of Omaha Security Systems Inc. says an unidentified man stole nearly $300 worth of landscaping Sunday night. "The motion sensors went off and I got a notification on my phone that he was there. We saw him take the plants, we watched him drive away and then immediately contacted police," said Malmberg. "He was real nervous, but he ended up stealing shrubbery, Hosta plants, I mean - never in my life have I ever known somebody to steal landscaping." Malmberg said the plants could be replaced, but what's frustrating is that this is one of several vandalism incidents his business has experienced since OSSI moved into the building near Jefferson and Mission Ave. "We've had vandalism, we've had items stolen, or attempted to be stolen, with the security that we...
