In an effort to prevent crime and protect young people from falling into criminal activities, Maudaha Police has launched a public awareness initiative through community meetings, earning appreciation from residents across the town and surrounding areas.
A Police-Public Dialogue Chaupal was organised at Imam Chowk Ground in the Uparaus locality of Maudaha.

He also spoke about the importance of discouraging young people from gathering unnecessarily in public places late at night.
Addressing cybercrime concerns, the police officer advised residents to remain cautious about messages from unknown numbers and never share one-time passwords (OTPs) with others.
He further urged parents to prevent their children from participating in protests and demonstrations without proper understanding of the situation, warning that young people could face legal consequences if they become involved in unlawful activities.
The meeting also provided an opportunity for residents to raise their grievances and submit complaints directly to the police.

Several local residents and community representatives attended the event, including Naim, spokesperson; Karim Ullah, popularly known as Babujee; Hameed Khan, known as Dabbu Bhai; Ghanshyam Sahu; and Puran Singh Yadav.
