New DelhiIndia will put 2,500 AI cameras on Delhi’s roads.
The Internet Freedom Foundation says the plan is silent on what is stored, for how long, and who gets access.
The cameras flag helmetless riders, phone use, wrong-way cars and hot-listed vehicles, feeding a police control room linked to 25,000 existing cameras.
Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw says protocols, operating rules and regulations will follow, with citizens in mind.
Work starts within 8 months, yet the government has not said what data role the private integrator gets.
