Shimla cops launch scheme for armed forces personnel

Himachal Pradesh Polity and Governance

The military and paramilitary personnel would no longer face any problem in redressal of their issues back home as the Shimla police have launched the Aabhar Yojana (gratitude scheme) to reach out to their families and register their complaints on phone.
As these personnel are not able to come home due to occupational problems, their families are often left in the lurch.
Now, personnel of the armed forces and their family members can directly approach the police through the mobile number.
The police station in charge will prepare a list of such personnel in their jurisdiction and inform them about the helpline number and their personal mobile numbers.
A register of all complaints received through phone or in writing will be prepared and the same will be disposed of on priority.
