2011 Land Acquisition Protests In Uttar Pradesh
The Government of Uttar Pradesh in India, has faced protests against its proposed forced land acquisition in 2011.

CCTV
Closed-circuit television (CCTV), also known as video surveillance, is the use of video cameras to transmit a signal to a specific place, on a limited set of monitors. It differs from broadcast television in that the signal is not openly transmitted, though it may employ point-to-point (P2P), point-to-multipoint (P2MP), or mesh wired or wireless links.
