To strengthen the ongoing drive to make Punjab a drug-free and crime-free state, Director General of Police (DGP) Punjab Gaurav Yadav on Thursday, assured total support to DGP Himachal Pradesh Sanjay Kundu to combat organised inter-state crime including smuggling of drugs and illicit liquor via Punjab-Himachal Pradesh Border.
Police Chiefs of both states were holding a coordination meeting at Punjab Police Headquarters to ensure better synergy and coordination between the two Police Forces.
Giving a call for total synergy and teamwork between Punjab Police and Himachal Pradesh Police, Yadav said that both the Police forces should work as one team and activate basic Policing and sharing real-time information by the use of latest technology to keep the region safe and secure. He said that Himachal Pradesh and Punjab Police will work together on joint operations at the Borders to keep vigil on gangsters and criminals, who have been operating in these states. It has also been decided to strengthen CCTV cameras at the entry/exit points at Border to prevent smuggling of drugs and illicit liquor, he added.
He also proposed to organise frequent meetings between District Police Chiefs and SSPs of both the neighbouring states to discuss activities of the gangsters and criminal gangs operating in the region as so many of the issues and crime patterns are similar and interrelated.
