Haryana Director General of Police, Sh. Shatrujeet Kapur, emphasized the crucial role of controlling officers in ensuring the integrity and honesty of their subordinate employees. He firmly stated that any employee found entangled in corruption-related activities would not only face appropriate disciplinary measures in accordance with established rules but also trigger an inquiry into the responsibilities of their respective control or supervising officer, with a mandatory requirement for an explanation.
He was presiding over a meeting organized today with senior police officers, station in-charge, and police personnel of Ambala Range. Ambala Range IG Mr Sibas Kaviraj welcomed Mr. Kapur. On this occasion, the Superintendents of Police of the three districts of Ambala Range, namely Ambala, Yamunanagar, and Kurukshetra presented the report of the work done in the priority areas.
During the meeting, DGP Kapur enquired about the feedback received by police from complainants in the three districts under the Ambala Range. He commended the in-charge officers of the top-performing police stations for their efforts in the feedback cell. However, he held accountable those in-charge officers of low-performing stations, urging them to explain their stations' shortcomings.
Emphasizing the police department's priorities, DGP Sh. Kapur reiterated that corruption would not be tolerated within the force. He called upon officers to create a conducive environment for their subordinates, serving as role models to inspire better work. Acknowledging and encouraging officers who perform commendably, he also stressed the importance of dealing firmly with those displaying negligence.
DGP Kapur highlighted women's safety as a top priority, urging the police to compile a database of public transport services such as autos, jeeps, and cabs, and engage with their drivers. He called for disseminating essential safety guidelines and promoting helpline numbers such as 1091 and mobile applications such as 112's Durga Shakti among women in colleges and educational institutions.
Furthermore, DGP Kapur urged police officers and employees to hold their uniforms in high regard and manage their responsibilities efficiently. He emphasized the significance of training and capacity building for police personnel. DGP Kapur also recommended granting police personnel at least one day of leave per week to enhance their productivity and foster family connections.
Addressing Gram Praharis, he stressed the importance of timely information to combat drug smuggling, urging them to identify drug sellers in their areas and support individuals struggling with addiction. DGP Kapur underlined the necessity of collective efforts in combating drug-related issues.
The Director General of Police said that any criminal leaves that place within a few minutes after committing a crime, but we have to focus more on where they reside rather than the crime scene. He said in clear words that Gram Praharis should prepare a list of people in their jurisdiction who are involved in criminal activities and who create fear among the people through bullying and bullying. If the database of Gram Prahari is strong, criminal activities will definitely be reduced.
