About this listen

As someone from Bangalore, I’ve been a bit bothered by how much flak we get, especially about traffic. So I set out to see if the criticism is fair, and what’s actually being done about it.In this episode, I spend the day with two of Bengaluru’s top police officers — B. Dayananda, IPS (Commissioner of Police) and M.N. Anucheth, IPS (Joint Commissioner of Police, Traffic) — to understand what’s really happening in the city.We get to know how the police are using AI and other technology to manage traffic more effectively, and what’s the future of urban transport. But this episode isn’t just about traffic. We delve into the reality of being a police officer, how they’re portrayed in movies, and the push-pull between politics and policing. We also discuss the rise in cybercrime and how you can protect yourself online.If you’ve ever complained about traffic, considered joining the force, or just want a closer look at how the system works, this episode is for you.Timestamps:⁠00:00⁠ - Intro & visit to the Office of the Commissioner of Police⁠2:31⁠ - Tracking calls at the Integrated Command & Control Centre⁠5:57⁠ - What police medals & uniforms represent⁠07:07⁠ - Police hierarchy & recruitment exams⁠12:36⁠ - Why is Bengaluru criticised & what’s the future of transport?⁠15:40⁠ - Are traffic fines a deterrent or government revenue?⁠17:41⁠ - How does Bengaluru use AI & data to improve traffic flow?⁠23:13⁠ - How cameras catch traffic violations⁠26:41⁠ - Combating bribery⁠29:35⁠ - Exploring the traffic police museum⁠31:26⁠ - The push-pull between politicians & police⁠33:00⁠ - B.
