Overview
- At a Patna workshop on Thursday, Samrat Choudhary told district chiefs to lodge FIRs at once, file quick chargesheets, and push time-bound prosecutions for crimes against women and minors.
- He issued a hardline instruction to "eliminate" rapists and to garland their photographs before victims’ terahvi, a 13th‑day mourning rite used here as public shaming.
- He required district magistrates and police superintendents to sit in their offices from 10 am to 2 pm each day to hear complaints.
- He ordered upgrades to policing tools, including faster emergency response through Dial 112, new CCTV at government and police offices, and real-time, data-based monitoring from his office.
- The push followed two high-profile killings in Bhagalpur and Siwan within 24 hours, with a two-month review now set to track results and enforcement.
