The nature of crime is also changing
The Chief Minister said that there is a lot of diversity in the state of Jharkhand. “Somewhere there is forest and somewhere there are mines. In some areas, industries are predominant, while in some places people are dependent on agriculture. Similarly, there is a lot of diversity in crime as per the circumstances here. The nature of crime is also changing every day. In such a situation, the challenge of the police also increases. In such a situation, your working style and strong information system will prove to be very effective in controlling crime,” he said.

Use modern technology to deal with crime

He also emphasized on improving the traffic system.
Better coordination between DC and SP will give better results
The Chief Minister said that law and order and crime control get strengthened only by better coordination between DC and SP in any district. He said that better results come from better coordination between DC and SP. “This gives impetus to development,” he added.
The Chief Minister expressed confidence that all the officers of the state will give better results in law and order and all other matters with their better working style. He assured that the government would provide all the resources and requirements to maintain law and order.
