Ludhiana's Sadar Police Station adjudged as best in India by UN affiliate

Ludhiana, Mar 26(ANI): A police station in Ludhiana has been declared as the best in the country by Altus Global Alliance, which works with the United Nations (UN) for enhancing public safety measures.

Altus Global Alliance declared Sadar Police Station as the best during its 'Police Station Visitor Week Competition'.

Paramjay Singh, Station House Officer of Sadar Police Station, said that the station received accolades from the delegation members in terms of facilities.

"Across India our police station, Sadar Police Station, has been awarded as the best police station by Altus global Alliance," Singh said.

The police station has separate desks to attend to women and children, facilities for disabled, courteous behavior, cleanliness, a well-equipped control room, a library and even a waiting room for visitors.

"It's unlike old police station, it is really good and is well equipped with many facilities. The facilities are installed keeping in view the needs of the people coming here. If there is a complainant who needs wheel chair they provide that also. They have made arrangements for women as well, there are proper water services and it is really good," said Sajan Singh, a visitor.

Unlike other police stations where detainees squat on floors, proper bedding and mattresses have been provided to make their stay comfortable.

Those coming to seek justice get their applications written by a policeman deputed to do this job.

Altus Global delegates surveyed 18 countries and from each country a police station was declared as the best. (ANI)
