‘Progress on records to be checked’
Punjab Police decided to introduce another feature in Police Record Management System that would help officers in checking the progress of police cases, said Punjab Inspector General of Police (IGP) Shoaib Dastagir. The decision was made during a high level meeting chaired by the IGP at Central Police Office Lahore (CPO) on Monday. The meeting was joined by Additional IG investigation Fiaz Ahmad Dev, DIG IT Waqas Nazeer, DIG Legal Jawad Dogar and AIG Monitoring and Analysis Umsan Bajwa along with other police officers. On the occasion, the IGP ordered the officers concerned to incorporate the new feature into the system to check the progress report of cases present in police station record management system. “This will improve professional duties so that any supervisory officer may seek information regarding registration of case and date of submission of challan.” It will also allow access to information on arrest of the accused, details of accused released on bail and number of proclaimed offenders.
