“The educational videos are not only informative but also tailored to resonate with their target audience. Nagpur Police believes in collaboration while addressing societal challenges. We are determined to combat human trafficking and will keep working towards achieving our goal.”, said Aswati Dorje, Joint Commissioner of Police, Nagpur.
These videos will be distributed across various platforms, including social media, schools, and community centres. “By educating the people we aim for a safe environment for women, children and everyone. Staying vigilant and well informed is crucial for citizens to prevent crime.”, said Amitesh Kumar, Commissioner of Police, Nagpur.
With this new series of videos, City Police is encouraging open communication among adolescents and parents. Police personnel visiting the schools for Police Didi seminars had suggested this to reduce the hesitancy in reporting crime against young girls, said the Prakruthi Spokesperson.
With easy access to mobile phones and social media, minors are vulnerable to online threats, where social media platforms are used for entrapment. The new series of videos will inform about manipulation tactics used by perpetrators on social media platforms.
