Delhi Police likely to secure World Bank funds for technology initiatives

NEW DELHI: A timely move by Delhi Police to secure World Bank assistance for its technology initiative seems to be paying off. Senior police sources say the agency is all set to finance a part of the Safe Delhi Project. "We had applied for Rs 76 crore and have already received assurances for about Rs 40 crore, which is to be released in two phases. The World Bank will pay for the project from its IT initiatives fund," An officer told TOI.

"We were told about the World Bank initiative in December and immediately decided to apply. We made a number of presentations before their representatives and finally convinced them to fund a portion of the project,'' said the officer.

The components to be covered include integration of various databases of Delhi Police and external bodies. "The MHA will soon begin CCTNS that will integrate all police stations in India. A separate Mega City Policing project in seven Indian cities is also on the anvil. We want to lead in both,'' said Sandeep Goel, joint CP (EOW).

Besides this, World Bank will fund the information analysis component that will help cops collect information on the move. The 6,000 PDAs to be provided to ground officers and the 800 mobile terminals for PCR vans will be procured through this fund. Even the 621 vehicle-mounted automatic numberplate readers will be bought through this fund after proper tendering.

The World Bank wants to achieve a number of traffic control objectives through such measures. "The aim is to reduce accidents and congestion through junction analysis , detect speeding and red light violations, increase revenue through e-challans (already in use in 10 of 43 traffic circles) and parking management," said the officer.

The police will also be looking for greater integration of their existing online components such as Online Criminal Dossier System , history sheet details, conviction and fingerprint records, Prisoner Management System (PMS) and Criminal Remote Identification System (CRIS). Lieutenant governor Najeeb Jung was shown a presentation on the Safe City Project on Monday.
