The Dhaka University on Wednesday introduced e-security surveillance aimed at enhancing safety and security within the campus area.

DU Vice Chancellor Professor Mohammad Akhtaruzzaman inaugurated the e-security surveillance and monitoring programme from the Abdul Motin Chowdhury Virtual Classroom.

Professor Mohammad Asif Hossen Khan, the director of the DU ICT Cell, Professor Maksudur Rahman, the DU proctor, along with other assistant proctors and faculty members were present during the inauguration.

A total of 58 cameras are now operational, ensuring round-the-clock, 24/7 monitoring for the safety and security of the campus area.

Expressing hope to play a vital role in controlling any kind of untoward incident and maintaining the overall security and orderly environment in the university, the DU VC said: “Most of the roads and important public places around the university campus are now being closely monitored by CCTV cameras under this e-security surveillance system.”

“This programme will gradually be expanded and the entire university campus will be brought under the security belt by installing CCTV cameras in every corner of the university.”
