A state-of-the-art Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) has been set up on the outskirts of Srinagar city under the Smart City Mission.
The Centre will act as the “brain and nerve” for all Smart City IT-related interventions. It will be responsible for GIS mapping and will have a digital address for all the properties in the City. The Centre is also tasked to lay a 175 KM long fibre net for uninterrupted services to the locals.
The ICCC will also have a traffic management system, early warning system, location-based targetted surveillance and messaging service. The system will also provide a monitoring traffic system to keep a check on violations and also provide other traffic-related services. A portal, as well as an app, have been set up that will serve as a platform for the people to avail of the services provided by the Srinagar Municipal Corporation, said officials.
Additional Director General, PIB and spokesman of the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, Rajeev Jain, while deliberating the services provided by the ICCC said, that besides providing citizen-centric services, the surveillance mechanism provided by the centre will be helpful in curbing the crimes. He, however, maintained that there will be no privacy breach and law enforcement agencies can use it only under the provision provided by the law.
