Valpoi police has decided to intensify surveillance in Sattari during the Ganesh Chaturthi and has appealed to public for cooperation in this regard.
Valpoi Police Inspector Harish Gawas was briefing a group of residents at a meeting in Honda, after concerns were raised over the theft of 15 truck batteries from Honda, Sonshi and Navelim areas earlier this week.
Truck owners, businessmen and prominent residents present at the meeting claimed that thefts have been on the rise in and around Honda.
While addressing the various concerns of the truck owners and others at the meeting, PI Gawas said the Valpoi police would intensify surveillance during Ganesh Chaturthi.
He appealed to people to contact the police if they are likely to leave their homes unoccupied while they visit their ancestral homes, so that police teams on patrol duties can take rounds at these unoccupied houses during the festival.
PI Gawas also appealed to people to inform the police if they had any information regarding the theft of the truck batteries.
