CCTVs all over the state are found to be malfunctioning. They have been installed at great cost and serve no purpose. CCTVs today are digital unlike the earlier analog versions. There are a few local TV channels that broadcast their content locally in the state. In the same manner CCTV footage can be broadcast locally on TV on a separate local TV channel.
This will ensure that the CCTVs are constantly kept working. Those watching the channel can lodge a complaint if any are found to be in disorder. Also, local cable TV operators can broadcast CCTV footage of their local area. If anyone is found to be dumping garbage in the vicinity they can be apprehended in short time by the locals.
A toll-free number can also be provided to report any crimes or mishaps witnessed on the channel. Rather than having paid observers, the citizens themselves can observe at least their own areas. It's time now for showtime! "You are on candid camera!"
