Chhattisgarh Police is going to make things easy for people by registering complaints also via WhatsApp from February 1.
“We have initiated a new programme by @CG_Police to solve the problems of citizens through online programme SAMADHAN. This has achieved lots of response. Now, we are starting SAMADHAN through WhatsApp from 1st February,” Director General of Chhattisgarh Police D.M. Awasthi tweeted on Wednesday.
The numbers will be released soon, he added.
The WhatsApp number will be put in public domain so that quick action can be initiated in serious cases, a senior officer said.
Awasthi has been working on different policing mechanisms to improving policing in the state.
A few days back he adopted a new mechanism to control the trade of illegal liquor in the state according to which police station in-charge was made responsible if illegal liquor was caught in the limits of his police station.
