Very soon the Chennai Police will have its website. You will be able to log on to the website and also chat with senior police officials to resolve your problems.
The city police are launching a website of their own, with a social networking component, for the general public to be able to interact with police personnel.There are over 134 police stations across the city, with 15,000 police personnel.
If someone has a complaint, they can post it online and officers will take action. They can also chat with officers on twitter. Occasionally, the city police commissioner will also be available for interaction.Besides, the website will have the numbers of all police stations.The public will also be able to find out who the officer in charge of their respective locality is. They can provide crime alerts while staying anonymous.
Licenses such as those for guns will also be available for downloading. People can download the forms, fill them in and submit them to the commissioner’s office. There will also be tips for citizens to avoid being duped by criminals.
Residents said a website would be welcome, as they would be able to file complaints at their convenience, from home, but said that the police should be proactive in acting on these complaints. The website is nearly complete and will be inaugurated soon, senior police officers said.
