By Dheeraj Fartode

GIVING thrust to strengthening people-police relation through social networking, the Nagpur City Police have distributed smartphones and tablets to all Senior Police Inspectors of City Police Stations, on Saturday. Getting real time intelligence of happenings from citizens is another goal of the system which is the brainchild of Commissioner of Police (CP) Sharda Prasad Yadav. 
Guardian Minister Chandrashekhar Bawankule distributed the gadgets to all Police Inspectors and applauded City Police for ensuring sense of security among the citizens. “Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis is happy with functioning of Nagpur Police Commissionerate. You have developed a sense of security among the citizens,” said Bawankule while addressing the officers.

Six new police stations would come in the city to ease work pressure on policemen. “Kamptee and Hingna police stations including Jamtha stadium would come under the jurisdiction of Nagpur City Police Commissionerate in a month. Decision has been taken in this regard in a meeting held at Mumbai recently,” Bawankule further informed. 
Commissioner of Police (CP) Sharda Prasad Yadav, Joint CP Rajvardhan, Addl CP Shrikant Tarwade, DCPs Ishu Sindhu, Ranjan Kumar Sharma, Abhinash Kumar, Vijay Pawar, Sanjay Latkar, Deepali Masirakar were present during the programme.

How it will works?

Senior Police Inspector (Sr. PI) of every police station would form WhatsApp groups of women, social activist, renowned persons etc. residing under jurisdiction of concern police station. The citizens can directly informed the Sr PI about happenings in their area. The Sr PI would also send scanned copy of First Investigation Report (FIR) to complainant through WhatsApp. You can directly ask Sr PI to become member of WhatsApp group or ask for FIR copy on WhatsApp. If any Police Inspector will deny citizens for their right, then citizens can directly complaint concern Zone DCP. 

ACS (Home) to take action against police 
officers not joining duties at Nagpur 

When asked about the man crunch in the city police, Bawankule said that Additional Chief Secretary (ACS Home) K P Bakshi has given approval for additional man power in Nagpur City. “ACS (Home) would take stern action against senior rank police officers who will not join duties at Nagpur after transfer orders,” he added.

By
IGP Mallikarjuna Prasanna By Dheeraj Fartode  Published on Feb/17/2019 NOT many are aware of an episode during the then US President Barack Obama’s visit to India in 2010. The world’s most powerful man was made to wait for 11 minutes in his car while an Indian cop took on American officials for their unwarranted interference in the US President’s security. KM Mallikarjuna Prasanna, Special Inspector General of Police of Nagpur Range, still continues to work with the same pride, wearing his patriotism on the sleeve. “Had they (Americans) deployed their personnel for area security, then the message would have been Indians are unable to protect VIPs in their nation,” recounted Prasanna on the episode that is one of the highlights of his distinguished career of a skillful investigator. The story of the IPS officer of 2000 batch is worth a film. In fact, a movie (Nagarjun-starrer ‘Officer’) has already been made by Ram Gopal Verma last year. His real life script als...
