Telangana DGP M Mahender Reddy today asked the people of the state to download the TSCOP app onto their smartphones to get alerts about coronavirus suspects around them.
He said that the police had geo-tagged the houses of all the suspects and uploaded the details onto the app.
The app would also alert the police if any of the coronavirus suspects under home quarantine ventured out of their houses, with a message being sent to the nearby police, he said.
He urged all the suspects to confine themselves to their houses and not venture out, to protect themselves.
He also said that the police were keeping a special watch on all the containment zones in the city.
