'OUR GOVT IS COMMITTED TO GOOD GOVERNANCE': CHHATTISGARH CM

Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai emphasized that fear of the law should be instilled in the minds of criminals, and justice should be ensured to the victims in a swift manner.

He emphasized on the importance of maintaining the trust and confidence of public in police administration, ensuring that no citizen is harassed. The police must adopt a friendly attitude towards the common man, and police stations should foster an environment that assures citizens of assistance when they enter. He made these remarks while reviewing the law and order situation on the second day of the Collector-SP Conference at New Circuit House in the capital.

The CM urged the Collectors and Superintendents of Police to coordinate effectively to ensure robust action in controlling crime across the state. He highlighted that the Union Government has amended the Penal Code, now known as the Code of Justice. Police officers must adapt themselves to the new laws and ensure their thorough implementation on the ground. He reaffirmed the government’s commitment to good governance, noting that crime rates have decreased compared to previous years.
