Berhampur Police have placed around 150 people with criminal records under weekly monitoring across the city’s 15 police stations. Those on the list must report every week, inform police before travelling outside Berhampur or Ganjam district, and explain the purpose of their travel. The police intelligence wing will track their activities. The move follows a rise in gang rivalry, intimidation and anti-social incidents in the city. Senior citizens and social workers have welcomed the step but questioned its implementation, urging stronger intelligence gathering. SP Saravana Vivek M said the list is ready at all stations and active anti-socials will be called for attendance.
