The Uttar Pradesh DGP, Rajeev Krishna (IPS:1991:UP), held a comprehensive review meeting with senior IPS officers in the state, virtually attended by zonal ADGs, Range IGs/DIGs, Police Commissioners, and SSPs/SPs at the police headquarters.
According to an official statement, detailed reviews were conducted regarding disposal of complaints lodged online, quality and timely completion of investigations, the Zero Fatality District (ZFD) campaign, effective use of the Yaksha App, and other important law-and-order-related issues.
For review purposes, each district/commissionerate and commissionerate zone was considered a separate unit, resulting in 88 units being reviewed.
The DGP is said to have given necessary directions to the officers.
Soon after taking charge of the DGP, Krishna had set a target for all districts to reduce public complaints by 40 percent during review meetings held from June last year, and his efforts have shown positive signs as the latest review found a significant reduction in public grievances.
The DGP emphasized the need for policing before registration of FIR as an extremely important factor. He said the effective disposal of public complaints should be considered a criterion for postings at police stations and outposts.
Besides, a special campaign is underway across the state to ensure quality and timely disposal of investigations.
The state currently holds the third rank in the Centralised Ranking and NCL Dashboard of the Government of India, and a target has been set to achieve the 1st position.
DGP Krishna directed the officers that, as per the provisions of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita (BNSS), general investigations should be completed within 60 days, and investigations of serious crimes within 90 days.
Senior officers were directed to conduct regular orderly room inspections and supervision to review investigations and ensure timely and quality disposal.
