Home Minister highlights modern C4I system, faster justice under Nyaya Sanhita, and strengthened policing to tackle crime and terrorism
New Delhi: Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Monday addressed the 79th Raising Day of the Delhi Police, unveiling major infrastructure and technology upgrades aimed at modernising policing and strengthening national security.
The Home Minister laid the e-foundation stone of the Special Cell’s integrated headquarters, built at a cost of Rs 368 crore. The facility will feature a state-of-the-art indoor firing range, war room, cyber lab, training hall, and other modern amenities, positioning it as the country’s most advanced hub for tackling narcotics, terrorism, and organised crime.
In addition, the first phase of the Rs 857 crore Safe City Project was inaugurated, including the modern Integrated Command, Control, Communication, and Computer Centre (C4I). Under this initiative, 2,100 of the planned 10,000 surveillance cameras in Delhi are live, while over 15,000 existing cameras have been integrated into the system. Shah said the project will significantly enhance real-time monitoring and security across the capital.
The Home Minister also stressed that the full implementation of the three new Nyaya Sanhita laws would significantly improve conviction rates and ensure faster justice nationwide.
On internal security, he expressed confidence that Left-wing extremism would be completely eliminated before March 31, adding that the government aims to build such a robust system that “not even a single infiltrator” can cross India’s borders.
Calling 2014–2026 a “golden era” for internal security, the Home Minister said the focus remains on technology-driven policing and nationwide modernisation.
