Lucknow: In his first major address since taking charge, newly-appointed Director General of Police (DGP) of Uttar Pradesh, Rajeev Krishna, a 1991-batch IPS officer, held a comprehensive video conferencing session with senior police officials across the state on Friday. The high-level meeting focused on key priorities to bolster law and order, curb crime, and integrate advanced technologies into policing strategies.

Proactive Crime Control and Focus on Petty Offences

During the meeting, DGP Krishna called for a proactive and preventive approach to law enforcement, urging officers to remain vigilant not only against major crimes but also against small and petty offences. “Even minor offences can create an atmosphere of fear and lawlessness. Our response must be swift and visible,” he said.

Targeting Habitual Offenders with Technology

A significant part of the strategy involves leveraging digital tools and databases to identify, track, and act against habitual offenders. Krishna underscored the value of technology-driven policing, calling on districts to strengthen data collection and integrate analytics to predict and prevent crimes.

Women’s Safety and Swift Justice a Top Priority

The DGP placed special emphasis on ensuring safety for women, calling for zero tolerance in crimes against them. He instructed officers to ensure quick registration of FIRs, timely investigation, and speedy prosecution in such cases. “Women must feel safe and confident in stepping out and reporting crimes without fear or hesitation,” he said.

Cybercrime: The Rising Threat

Highlighting the rapid rise of cybercrime in the state, Krishna noted that conventional policing must be augmented with specialised training and digital infrastructure. “From financial frauds to cyberstalking, the landscape of crime is evolving. Our response mechanisms must evolve too,” he remarked.

Harnessing AI and Innovation in Policing

He encouraged departments to explore the use of artificial intelligence and other technological innovations for real-time monitoring, pattern recognition, and smart investigations. The goal, he said, is to make policing predictive and preventive, rather than just reactive.

Grievance Redressal and Public Trust

Mr Krishna stressed the importance of responsive grievance redressal systems to boost public trust and accountability. “A citizen-centric approach is essential. Every complaint must be addressed promptly and transparently,” he said.

Capacity Building and Continuous Training

Recognising the dynamic nature of modern-day policing, DGP Krishna called for regular training modules, workshops, and upskilling programs for personnel at all levels. “An informed and well-equipped force is our strongest weapon against crime,” he concluded.
