Chief minister Akhilesh Yadav said that Dail -100 would be implemented in all over the state very soon when police would reach the incident spot within no time.
“Police vehicle would reach the spot along with the 102 ambulances within 15 to 20 minutes at the spot of any incident,”Yadav announced while flagging off 1056 new police four wheel vehicles to be deployed at all the police stations in the state. Now every police station in the state would have at least two four-wheelers so that they can reach the incident spot at the earliest.
Hitting out at the media again, the CM said that his government was a liberal and democratic government but it is unfortunate that media was not highlighting the achievement of the government but was tarnishing the image for small incidents. He also remarked that the media persons even threaten the police from time to time and narrated that even after 100 deaths in a particular state of the country, the media did not show the picture of the CM but when it comes for UP, the CM is dragged in even a small incident.
lauding the achievements of the policemen, Yadav said that people still are afraid with the police even though the security personnel do their job tirelessly without proper food and sleep. He also said that his government has given promotion to most of the policemen and more than 5000 residential houses are being constructed for them. “ UP government is working for the upliftment of the people of the state but is lagging behind in publicising its achievements,” he said.
PWD minister Shivpal Singh Yadav said that more police outposts is required in the state while demanded more appointments of policemen and drivers in the police department. State Health minister Ahmed Hassan, who himself is a former IPS officer, asked the policemen to be efficient and friendly with the people.”Police should not harass the innocent but on the other hand should also not spare the guilty one,” he stated while expressed that lethargic attitude of the police sometimes create controversy like it did in the Badaun sister rape incident.
Principal Secretary Home, Devashish Panda narrated in detail about the facilities being provided by the government to the police modernisation. He also announced that around 4000 drivers and 40,000 constables would be appointed very soon. “ The result of the constables exams to appoint around 35,000 policemen would be announced in a day or two while they would go for training next month,” Panda announced.
Director General of Police (DGP) Arvind Kumar Jain, who retired on Tuesday after three months extension from April, said that UP police has gone for zero tolerance mode related to crime in the state.
“During my 5 months tenure as the DGP of the biggest country of the world after China, US and Indonesia in population, I appreciate the cooperation lended by the CM in all ways,” he said. Jain, however, demanded a sanction of Rs 37 crores to purchase 526 more vehicles so the all the remaining police stations, GRP police stations and others were provided with vehicles.
