Uttarakhand: State’s 1st ‘child-friendly police station’ ready to open
Uttarakhand’s first child-friendly police station, which has been developed on the first floor of the Dalanwala police station premises, is ready for operation. Updated: December 25, 2020 9:13:39 am
This ‘baal mitra police thana’ has been developed under supervision of the state Child Right Protection Commission.
Avoiding any armed personnel in khaki wear or scratchy police radios, children coming to the Dalanwala police station in Dehradun will soon find a separate entrance lead them to the first floor, where a designated room with toys, comic books and wall paintings of popular cartoon characters, from Mowgli to Doraemon, will help them feel comfortable in interacting with the police and reporting any incident without fear.
