Stealing cars and hijacking by using car are a very common phenomenon in the city these days. We watch on TV channels and go through such reports in the daily newspapers. Unfortunately, a section of the law enforcers are also alleged to be involved in these unlawful activities. I do have some specific recommendations to counter this crime.

1. The registration number should be written on the body/glass of the car, both in front and at the back. No number plate should be allowed in this regard.

2. No sticker should be allowed to write the registration number.

3. When a car is painted or kept in a garage, the local police should be informed of all such activities.

I would request the authorities concerned to consider my suggestions with a view to stopping car theft which has increased alarmingly.
