The growing population of Hyderabad, a rise in vehicle numbers, and the need for Mega City Policing Plan, was the criteria to reorganise the Hyderabad City Police commissionerate, said Hyderabad Police Commissioner C.V. Anand at a press meet on Saturday.
It was on April 30 that the Home department issued orders for the reorganisation, which is a major exercise after 1987, when the population was about 25 lakh, followed by a partial reorganisation in 2002. Even after the State bifurcation, and later creation of the new districts too, the City Police’s organisation remained same.
Mr. Anand who explained the process behind the mega exercise, said a reorganisation committee comprising several senior officers worked on the proposals for six months.
