As part of its holistic anti-terror measures, the Mumbai Police has decided to reward alert citizens who spot unattended, suspicious objects in the vicinity of Ganesh pandals across the city.

The Mumbai police in association with ICICI Bank will reward the alert citizen with a gold coin. This initiative is part of its on-going 'Mumbai Ke Liye 1 Minute' drive, which appeals citizens to take out a minute from their busy schedule to look around if they spot a suspicious person, object or vehicle and call the police.

"In this unique initiative, a bag or any other item would be placed by the police itself near a pandal and if the object that remains unattended for a long time and looks suspicious is spotted by any citizen and if he/she brings to the notice of the policemen, he will be rewarded with a gold coin sponsored by the ICICI Bank," Mumbai Police Commissioner Rakesh Maria told PTI today.
