Hyderabad governs with 24x7 candid camera

Hyderabad governs with 24x7 candid camera: "Even as the wrongdoings in the telecom sector generate anger and dismay, Hyderabad’s city governance initiative using mobile phones provides a breath of fresh air on what the telecom revolution can do for India. The Off-Site Real Time Monitoring (OSRT) system is a unique but simple mobile-based IT initiative which uses a combination of GPS (Global Positioning System) and GPRS (General Packet Radio Services) technologies through cell phones for managing civic amenities in the city in a transparent and efficient manner."
