Overview
- DGP Rajeev Krishna led a video-conference review with zonal, commissionerate and district chiefs and directed documentation and replication of the best-performing districts’ practices.
- Officers were told to file chargesheets within Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita limits—60 days for routine cases and 90 for serious offences—while ensuring investigative quality.
- Official metrics cited steep drops in public complaints, with Sambhal, Firozabad and Etawah near 70% and 15 districts over 40%, and complaint disposal was set as a criterion for postings.
- The Zero Fatality District campaign was credited with accident reductions in 54 of 88 policing units, including about 83% in Shravasti, 53% in Ghaziabad’s rural zone and 48% in Jalaun, with a 40% reduction target.
- The push includes wider Yaksh app use for beat policing, personal monitoring of e-summons and e-evidence, greater reliance on scientific and digital proof, and ANTF-led asset seizures under the NDPS Act.
