Solar Powered CCTV Camera for CBSE School Safety
As of July 21, 2025, CBSE has mandated that all affiliated schools install high-definition CCTV cameras with real-time audio-visual monitoring, covering entry/exit points, corridors, staircases, classrooms, labs, libraries, canteens, storerooms, playgrounds, and more, with a minimum 15-day footage backup requirement. The aim: to deter bullying, misuse, and improve student safety on all fronts. (Source)
Challenge for schools: Implementing this across sprawling campuses, sometimes in remote locations deals with two major challenges:
- Power reliability: Many areas suffer from inconsistent electricity.
- Long-term costs: Ongoing energy and maintenance bills add up fast.
