Taking a firm stand against acts that threaten public peace and law and order, Surgi Police Outpost in Rajnandgaon has initiated strict preventive action against a youth accused of repeatedly disturbing domestic harmony and creating the potential for wider unrest in the area.
The action was carried out under the direction of Superintendent of Police Ms Ankita Sharma (IPS), guidance of Additional Superintendent of Police Mr Pushpendra Nayak, and supervision of City Superintendent of Police Ms Vaishali Jain (IPS), as part of an ongoing campaign to maintain peace and control crime in the region.
