‘Force will instal 15,000 more CCTVs’
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday visited Delhi Police Headquarters and praised the force for the way they handled communal riots in north-east Delhi and the ongoing farmers’ protest at the borders.
“In the challenging year, Delhi Police has passed the test. Be it the riots, COVID-19 lockdown, helping migrant workers or establishing peaceful talks with protesting farmers at borders, they faced every challenge with immense courage,” he said.
Under the Safe City project, Delhi Police will install 15,000 CCTV cameras that will then be integrated with the cameras installed at the railway station and the ones put up by the Delhi government, Mr. Shah added.
Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Tuesday asked the Delhi Police to set five targets for each police station to improve performance by 2022 when the country will celebrate 75 years of Independence. During an event organised at the Delhi Police headquarters here, he praised the force for the work done during the coronavirus pandemic and said it has been providing exemplary services to people of the national capital. Shah also said the police force tackled the northeast Delhi riots last year and brought back peace in the city. Be it tackling the northeast Delhi violence, the lockdown announced after the outbreak of COVID-19, the unlocking process or the movement of migrant workers, the Delhi Police has provided exemplary services to the people, the Union home minister said.
Amit Shah said that around 8,000 police personnel got COVID-infected.
