Nagpur: Maharashtra
Home Minister R.R. Patil Friday said that the government plans to
recruit 63,000 policemen throughout the state in the next five
years.
In response to a query during the question hour, Patil conceded
that there has been a shortage of police personnel and that the
proposal of recruiting 63,000 policemen will soon be discussed in
the state cabinet.
He also said that 55,000 policemen were recruited in the last five
years in the state at various levels to strengthen the force.
Speaking specifically about Nagpur city, Patil said that five new
police stations have been proposed for Nagpur and land has been
sought from the Nagpur Improvement Trust (NIT) and the civic body
for setting them up.
He assured that if there is delay in allotment of plots for the
proposed police stations in the city, the government will rent
properties till appropriate plots of land are allotted for the
same.
Several opposition members, however, criticised the government for
not doing enough to bring down the increasing crimes against women
including chain-snatching, which has become a major problem in the
city.
Earlier during the question hour, the house was adjourned twice as
the opposition took on the government for crop losses due to
scanty rainfall. The opposition also criticised the absence of
Rehabilitation Minister Patangrao Kadam and Minister of State for
Revenue Prakash Solanki, from whom the opposition sought answers
related to crop losses.
