CP Amitesh Kumar to hold ‘Janta Darbar’ in slums

By

CP Amitesh Kumar

Despite stern police action against many anti-social elements, some notorious criminals still continue with illegal activities in the slums of the city. Common people do not dare to approach the police against such elements. Commissioner of Police (CP) Amitesh Kumar has identified such slums in the city and decided to have one-to-one interaction with the residents to get first hand information. The CP has decided to hold ‘Janta Darbar’ at 15-20 slums in upcoming months. The initiative was launched on Saturday by interacting with residents of Lalganj area in East Nagpur on Saturday evening.
CP Amitesh Kumar said that the public interaction will be organised at Rajiv Nagar and Sonegaon Nipani in MIDC Police Station, Lalganj in Shanti Nagar area, Naik Talav in Panchpaoli, Garib Nawaz Nagar Yashodhara, Hasanbagh in Nandanvan, Pandharabodi in Ambazari, Gaddigodam and Goa Colony in Sadar area.
The police observed that some anti-socials are operating illegal liquor and gambling dens and also selling drugs. These illegal activities lead to an increase in crime cases. Common people feared to lodge a complaint against the criminals due to fear. CP Amitesh kumar has decided to boost the confidence of the common people so that they would give a tip-off to the police about illegal activities. Similarly, immediate action will also be taken against anti-socials based on the inputs received from the public during ‘Janta Darbar’.

Crime rate decreases

As per the statistics, crime cases are decreasing in the city in the last three years. The city witnessed a lockdown for several months in 2020. As a result, not many crime cases were registered in the first six months of 2020.

IGP Prasanna : The man who stopped Obama’s convoy

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...

The bridge would be open for traffic in December this year providing a major boost to tourism at Shree Chaitanyeshwar Mahadev temple at Ambhora. It is set to open doors of development for the backward area of Kuhi and Umred tehsil. Ambhora, located 75 km from Nagpur city, is a famous religious and tourist place in Vidarbha. It is situated at the confluence of five rivers -- Wainganga, Kanhan, Aam, Kolari and Murza. Just around a decade ago the river bank housing Ambhora used to see a flux of tourists from all over the State. However, the banks were submerged in water after the construction of Gosikhurd dam which led to rise in water levels. Since then, tourist flow at Ambhora has also declined. However, now with the construction of the new bridge tourists will get a chance see the scenic backwaters across the river bed which is...
