In its submission before the Central Information Commission here, the Delhi Police said in order to implement the CCTNS, there is requirement of leased line of sufficient bandwith and other Information Technology infrastructure facilities like servers etc.
The CCTNS was launched by UPA Government in the aftermath of 26/11 Mumbai attack to interconnect and computerise every police station in the country.
The police has said proposal for a leased line has already been moved and is “pending” in MHA, Information Commissioner Sudhir Bhargava noted as he conceded their request to give two more months to comply with October 10, 2013 order of the Commission.
In the order, the Commission had directed the Delhi Police Commissioner to ensure within three month that Delhi Police website starts publishing daily diary entry number of the complaints received at respective police stations of Delhi Police, status of complaints and outcome of complaints.
RTI applicant R K Jain has approached the Commission seeking to know whether the order has been complied with. Not getting satisfactory information, he approached the Commission where Delhi Police has sought repeated extensions to implement CCTNS.
