Chennai police gear up for ISO certification

The city police, with a view to providing further quality service to the people, proposed to go in for ISO certification and is trying something 'in this direction', a top police official said.
Initially, the attempt would be to get the ISO 9001-2000 certification for at least one police station in each of the 12 police districts, Police Commissioner R Natraj told PTI.

"We are aiming for this. There is a programme for obtaining the certification. We are gearing ourselves for this", he said.

There are several parameters for obtaining the certification, including the police station's appearance, both inside and outside, up-to-date records and transparent and easy accessibility. Others include filing of a chargesheet within 90 days and handing over the copy of a First Information Report to the complainant within 30-days.

The city police jurisdiction was recently enhanced by bringing many suburban areas under its ambit. All 150 police stations now have vehicles and communication equipment.

Eight main junctions in the city have been fitted with cameras operated from a central control room. Natraj said, 'ultimately the people of the metropolis have to be made the beneficiaries. The certification is aimed at this', he said.
