The three- day workshop is attended by senior police officials from various States.
DGP ( National Crime Research Bureau) Shafi Alam said,” `Crime and criminal tracking network and systems (CCTNS) project should be implemented in the right spirit and the officers should mentally accept change. With the help of technology the officers can do things more effectively. Most of the time people do not treat police department as trustworthy. That has to change; our image needs to be transformed.”
