Hope the new DGP will address the concerns of women's safety more proactively. While the achievements are praised, ground reality in many districts still needs improvement. Let's hope for concrete actions, not just words.

OP Singh sir did a decent job. Hope the new DGP continues the good work and also improves police-public relations. Sometimes at the thana level, the behaviour is not up to the mark. That needs to change.

Talking about fighting terrorism and crime is good, but what about traffic management and road safety? In Gurugram and Faridabad, the chaos is next level. Hope the new leadership looks into these daily issues faced by common people.
