Hyderabad: Winning laurels and ranked as the 8th best police station in India, the Shahalibanda police station is located in the southern side of the city.
With a staff strength of nearly 60 including the Station House Officer and sub inspectors, the police station jurisdiction is spread around 3 km radius. Considered as one of the communal sensitive police stations owing to its previous record of communal skirmishes, the police station takes care of the security of roughly 1.5 lakh population.
A police station’s performance is rated based on 40 parameters, including infrastructure and approachability, performance, ACB traps and suspensions, law and order situations, registering FIRs, filing charge sheets SC&ST Act, narcotics, etc.. Also, uploading data on CCTNS, disposal of old cases, passport verification, preventive actions and others criteria.
As part of the exercise, two months ago, a team of the Ministry of Home Affairs had visited the police station and physically inspected the premises.
S Ravi Kumar, SHO Shahalibanda police station, is quite happy over the achievement. “It is great moment for me and the entire staff. We will continue to work hard and strive to reach the first position,” said the SHO.
The police station was located in an old building previously and about a year ago, it was shifted to a new spacious building at Aliabad.
Additional DCP (south) Shaik Jahangir, who was the ACP Falaknuma, when the building construction work was started, recalled that a lot of efforts went in starting the works and then ensuring it was completed. “The police station infrastructure is one of the factors taken into consideration for the award,” he said.
