The DGP instructed Investigating Officers (IOs) and Station House Officers (SHOs) to maintain regular and continuous follow-up in pending cases, stressing that ensuring speedy justice to victims must remain the highest priority of the police.

He emphasised handling serious crimes with sensitivity, impartiality and promptness, ensuring effective and result-oriented action.

Senior officers of the Ajmer Range briefed the DGP on policing initiatives, current crime trends and law and order challenges in their respective districts.

District-wise reports were presented by SP Bhilwara Dharmendra Singh, SP Ajmer Vandita Rana, SP Beawar Ratan Singh, SP Tonk Rajesh K. Meena, SP Nagaur Mridul Kachhawa and SP Didwana–Kuchaman Richa Tomar.
