Offices of top cops get corporate look

Gone are the days when an interaction with the city police would be synonymous with dilapidated buildings, dusty files and lack of basic facilities. In an attempt to work towards a more people-friendly image, the offices of all senior police officials in the city and some police stations now wear a corporate look.

With computer-enabled offices, open halls and comfortable seating arrangement for residents, the makeover will make life easier for both visitors and the police officials at work.

A fine example is the police commissioner’s office which now has a presentable facade, a good hall and basic amenities like restrooms.

"Policemen attending to cases are at least making an honest attempt to help, which is great,: said SS Deswal, Gurgaon police commissioner. These newly-developed police stations and offices have improved the image of the police department. /P>
