On Tuesday, he conducted a review meeting with the town inspector P. Rajendra Prasad and sub-inspector Sudhakar at the Kaghaznagar police station to discuss security measures for these establishments.

During the meeting, DSP Ramanujam stressed the necessity of taking preventive measures to avoid any incidents at banks and ATMs. He instructed the concerned authorities to ensure that all banks and ATM centers adhere to the designated security protocols.

He mentioned that each bank branch should have an electronic alarm system in place and should be equipped with fully functional CCTV cameras both inside and outside the premises. Security guards at ATM centers should remain alert and take appropriate precautions, he added.

Furthermore, DSP Ramanujam advised ensuring that there are no duplicate keys for cash and gold locker safes and instructed that all rooms in the bank, including stationary rooms and dining areas, should be locked securely.
