The Integrated Police Command and Control Centre (CCC) and new Hyderabad Commissionerate are expected to be completed by October 31 this year, said Home Minister Nayani Narasimha Reddy here on Wednesday.
Replying to a query in the question hour in the Legislative Council here on Wednesday, the Home Minister clarified the Centre did not extend any assistance for the Command and Control Centre. It would be linked to all the 31 district headquarters, which would have their own Command and Control Centres to keep better vigil on law and order situation and effective control of crime.
The hi-tech Command and Control Centre would befit the image of Hyderabad as global city, he said.
The centre comprising two towers - A and B - would come up with G + 19 floors and G + 17 floors respectively at an estimated cost of ₹350 crore and would emerge as model centre in the country. The government also sanctioned new buildings to 13 district SP offices, while 45 new police stations were constructed and inaugurated. Another 15 police stations were ready and 25 more police stations were under construction in the State, he said. Three more modern police stations, two police training colleges and Octopus training centre would come up in the city at a cost of ₹100 crore.
Mr. Narasimha Reddy said that modern technology was being employed to ensure transparent and friendly policing in the State.
Filling doctor posts
Health Minister C. Laxma Reddy said measures are being taken to overcome the delay in filling over 9,973 doctor and other posts. Replying to a question from TRS Chief Whip Paturi Sudhakar Reddy, he said the government had significantly increased the number of doctors in all kinds of hospitals, from 30 bed to 300 bed hospitals. In the Vaidya Vidhana Parishad, even specialist services like forensic, radiology and surgery were increased.
He said 241 vehicle across the State were providing ‘102 services’ to transport pregnant women before and after delivery. About four to six vehicles were sanctioned for each district and vehicles were rushed wherever there was requirement under the ‘Amma Vodi’ scheme. Under ‘KCR Kits’ scheme, high risk pregnancy cases were identified in advance, he claimed.
