A day after taking over charge, Chandigarh’s new senior superintendent of police (SSP) Kanwardeep Kaur said the police will soon release a WhatsApp number to enable residents to directly share information with her.
During an interaction with the media on Friday, the SSP said, “Easy availability of drugs is a major concern. To get information about drug circulation, we will be releasing a number, where residents can share any information about drugs or crime freely. The informer’s identity will not be revealed.”
Kaur, a 2013-batch Punjab-cadre IPS officer, took charge as SSP Chandigarh on Thursday. She will be in Chandigarh on a three-year deputation.
“We will also strengthen the police beat system and even use technological intervention wherever needed,” the SSP said to build connect with residents.
“No one will be allowed to spoil law and order of the city. Area-specific strategy will be prepared to deal with street crime. Gangsters as well as criminals will be dealt with strictly,” she added.
