CHANDIGARH/LUDHIANA, May 5:
In yet another major step towards modernising the Punjab Police as envisioned by the Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh, Ludhiana has become the third city in the state, after Jalandhar and Mohali, to implement the Intelligent Traffic Management System (ITMS), announced Director General of Police (DGP) Punjab Gaurav Yadav as he inaugurates the futuristic Integrated Command and Control Centre (ICCC) here on Tuesday.
The DGP highlighted that under the ICCC project as many as 1,700 high-resolution cameras have been installed at 259 locations to strengthen the city’s surveillance grid.
The ITMS, which has been installed at 46 locations across the city, can detect upto nine traffic violations including red light violation, stop line violation, driving without helmet, pillion rider without helmet, triple riding, overspeeding, zebra crossing violation, wrong side driving and wrong parking.
DGP Gaurav Yadav, who was in Ludhiana as part of ground-zero tour, termed the upgraded state-of-the-art ICCC a major step towards preventive policing. “The newly inaugurated ICCC integrates multiple units under one roof, including Traffic, Police Control Room (PCR), Safe City, and Wireless units, which has significantly enhanced synergy and coordination in police working and reduced PCR response time from 15 minutes to just 7/8 minutes,” he said.
The DGP, accompanied by Commissioner of Police (CP) Ludhiana Swapan Sharma and Deputy Inspector General of Police (DIG) Ludhiana Range Satinder Singh, also held a comprehensive meeting with field officers, emphasising swift and citizen-centric resolution of public grievances.
To further strengthen the comradeship and espirit de corps, DGP Gaurav Yadav also joined police personnel at a ‘Bada Khana’ at Police Lines, sharing a meal with over 550 police personnel from all ranks of the Punjab Police. “Such interactions reinforce camaraderie, unity, and our collective commitment to serve the people,” he said.
Meanwhile, the DGP also honoured high-performing police officers and personnel to encourage and motivate them to perform their duties more effectively.
Among others, Senior Superintendent of Police (SSP) Ludhiana (Rural) Ankur Gupta, SSP SBS Nagar Tushar Gupta, SSP Khanna Darpan Ahluwalia and Staff officer to DGP Punjab Rishabh Bhola were also present.
