Stating that holding public darbar is one of the steps to connect with people, Jammu and Kashmir Director General of Police, Rashmi Ranjan Swain has said that they would try their best to bring back misguided youth but at the same time would not leave those who motivate them to join terror ranks.
Speaking to reporters after holding his first public darbar here at Police Headquarters, R R Swain said that he believes that meeting the public was one of the steps to connect with the people.
He said that meeting with people would help him to know different issues people are confronted with. “We can solve some issues on the spot and some can take time,” he said, adding that the Police Department’s focus would be to ensure a fast track grievance redressal system.
Those who met the DGP during the darbar were upbeat as they were given patient hearing.
They expressed deep hope that their issues would now be solved as early as possible.
“My brother was martyred in 2003 and got Shaurya Chakra,” one of the persons who met the DGP said. “We did not get anything. The DGP took my phone number and assured me that they will call me. My problem and others will be resolved by DGP Sahab.”
Swain said that grievances must be genuine and all the available redressal platforms must have been used before bringing the issues into the notice of the DGP. He said that those who were bringing up a grievance based on false information were liable for action against them as well. The DGP impressed upon the people on this occasion to put forward the grievances, which were within the ambit of set laws, rules, and procedures. He exhorted that such people-oriented programmes were for solving genuine problems of the people.
