Gujarat Police Implements Fuel-Saving Measures

The Gujarat Police Department, under the guidance of in-charge Director General of Police (DGP) K L N Rao, has taken significant steps aimed at reducing fuel usage across its operations. This initiative echoes Prime Minister Narendra Modi's recent appeal for austerity, specifically reduced fuel dependence, across government sectors.

During a video conference with senior officers, Rao emphasized the need to enhance administrative efficiency and limit unnecessary travel costs. Key measures include holding virtual meetings for district-level engagements, prioritizing online procedures in investigations, and using technology to streamline department functions.

Moreover, Rao advised a practical approach for police deployment, suggesting the use of nearby personnel and shared transport options. The directives are poised to boost governmental resource optimization and pave the way for economic functioning within the department.
