Haryana Police Get Services Friendly

Haryana DGP Manoj Yadava recently launched the integration of Aadhaar data with the Haryana Police services at the Police Headquarters in Panchkula. With this integration, citizens now have the option to enter their Aadhaar number for 17 services including character certificate, police clearance certificate, verification of domestic help, tenants, employees, private security agency, request and permission for protest, strike, procession, even, performance, threat assessment verification, registration of complaint, registration of lost property, RTI, cyber café, hotels and customers, NORI (No Obligation to Return to India), and no objection certificate (NOC.)

 

The efforts of Haryana Police to provide seamless service to the people of the state are in tune with its mission, which is to “help the common man, to provide him security and to create a peaceful and law abiding community with his cooperation…We are here to protect the weak, the under-privileged and to serve the people. In order to make Haryana Police people-friendly, to enhance the credibility of the police and to check corruption, transparency in the system is emphasized at all levels.”

 

Haryana Police have granted licenses to over 1,000 private security agencies while 137 licenses have been renewed after the enactment of the Private Security Agencies Regulation Act (PSARA) 2009 to regulate the working of private security agencies in the country. Haryana has further made rules regulating the grant or renewal of licenses under the Act.

 

ADGP, Law and Order, NS Virk, who is also holding the charge of controlling authority to grant licenses to private security agencies, said that the objective of the Act is to fulfil the growing demand of security guards in the country in a regulated manner, and also to provide avenues of employment to our youth. Moreover, a database of private security workforce in the state is also maintained and police use them as force multipliers to maintain public order in the state.
