Police Commissioner Gyanendra Singh Malik, known for his diligence and strong administrative grip, is facing intense scrutiny. The city's law and order situation has significantly improved under his tenure, but a barrage of criticism targeting his personal and professional reputation has raised eyebrows.
From minor traffic woes to street scuffles, every issue seems to point fingers at Malik. This shift in narrative is puzzling, especially when crime data paints a contrasting picture.
Crime Trends
Contrary to the allegations, the latest statistics indicate a marked improvement in law and order across Ahmedabad. A comparison of the first 10 months of 2023 and 2024 shows a decline in most categories of crime.
