The Delhi Police on Friday become the first police force in the country to digitize all malkhanas, rooms for keeping seized arms and ammunition, across every police station in the state, an official release said.
Underlying the importance of the project, Patnaik said that digitization of service delivery mechanism will definitely make the whole system faster, smoother and easier, the release stated.
The Commissioner of Police also commended the efforts of the personnel involved in the project and presented certificate of merit to 14 personnel -- one from each district.
A booklet on e-malkhana functioning was also released on the occasion and a short film on how the project was executed was shown.
