Citizen Feedback System
|
|
| It has been observed with concern that sometimes emergency calls especially regarding cognizable offences are received on the Pucar 15 and for its confirmation it is sent to concerned Police but SHO’s / Police do not pay attention and no cognizance is taken well in time. So, citizen feedback system is launched by Punjab Government. Now every important call is uploaded from Pucar 15 on the Chief Minister’s website, and a message is sent from the Chief Minister about the behavior, response and corruption of police. |
