'No More Like Hindi Film Cops': Maharashtra Police Now Reach Emergency Spots Within 3 Minutes Under Dial 112, Says CM Devendra Fadnavis

Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis announced that Maharashtra Police now reach emergency locations within three minutes of receiving a call via the Dial 112 service. This significant improvement in response time marks a departure from the outdated "Hindi film cops" who would arrive late to the scene, as asserted by the Chief Minister.

During the inauguration of various projects at the Pimpri-Chinchwad Police Commissionerate in Pune district, Fadnavis highlighted the role of modern technology and digital monitoring systems in enhancing public safety. These systems ensure accountability at every stage of the emergency response process by digitally recording the time a call is received and when police personnel arrive at the location.

Fadnavis emphasized that the police now respond promptly to incidents as they unfold, rather than only after they have occurred. Every call received through Dial 112 is meticulously logged, capturing crucial information such as the call time and the arrival time of the responding personnel. This digital footprint eliminates the possibility of false claims and allows authorities to assess the quality of response, including the proper treatment of the caller.
