Director General and Inspector-General of Police (DG&IGP) Om Prakash formally inaugurated the website www.mangalorecitypolice.com in the presence of IGP (Western Range) Amrit Paul and Mangaluru City Police Commissioner S Murugan on Tuesday, along with launching a new user-friendly mobile application for Android phones for traffic related concerns.

Web portal with FAQs, online forms

The new dedicated website provides details such as contact numbers of top police officials such as the police commissioner, deputy police commissioner and assistant police commissioner along with those of inspectors of all police stations.

Speaking after the inauguration of the web portal, DCP (Law & Order) K Santosh Babu told mediapersons that all application forms pertaining to permits would be available online for the convenience of citizens. The website will also contain a section on frequently asked questions (FAQs), along with which there will be a facility for people to report incidents occurring in the city commissionerate limits with information and images, he said.

One-of-its-kind mobile app

The Mangaluru City Police also launched an app which will be shortly available in Google Play store on Android phones.

DCP Santosh Babu said that the app would primarily include six sections such as – Traffic Offence, Live Traffic, Emergency, Traffic Signs, Report Incident and Contact numbers.

One interesting feature in the app is the option available to view ‘Live Traffic’ – which will show the user convenient traffic routes to get around in Mangaluru city at real-time and also show if chosen routes were congested with traffic.

Similar to the option imbedded in the web portal, the option ‘Report Incident’ can be used to report traffic emergencies or violations directly to top police officials such as police commissioner, two deputies and police control room with information and images.

Besides this, people also can get helpline numbers like women help lines, child help line, fire service, ambulance, control etc.

After inaugurating the web portal, Mr Om Prakash told mediapersons that the demand for three new police stations in Mangaluru city police commissionerate limits (Traffic South, Kaikamba and Jeppu) would be taken into consideration.

With regard to the demands of retired police personnel, he said that the department had formed a committee to go through details of new schemes that could accommodate the demands of retired police personnel, since Arogya Bhagya could not be extended to such personnel.
