Nashik, Oct 21
City and rural police received 21 new vehicles six months ago. This has helped avoid inconvenience to the police while chasing criminals, at the same time, citizens’ distress calls are getting quicker response.
There are 13 Police Stations under the Nashik City Police Commissionerate and 40 Police Stations under the office of Superintendent of Police (Rural). The scope of these police stations is large, and the police have to be vigilant day and night to maintain law and order. Criminal incidents have increased in the city, while the crime in the rural areas is comparatively less. The range of rural police is large and in tribal talukas, police have to reach villages and hamlets. Because of this, it is imperative that police vehicles are in good condition. Both the city and rural police forces were in intense need of new vehicles. Vehicles have been made available to police from the funds received from the District Planning Committee. This has reduced the number of calls to Dial 112 and the response time. Police are reaching the spot quicker and chasing the criminals has also become easier.
