During the meeting, follow-up action on decisions taken in previous meetings was reviewed. Various security-related measures aimed at maintaining peace and stability across Police District Awantipora were also discussed.
Detailed deliberations were held on various aspects of policing, including verification proceedings, inquest proceedings, missing person cases, investigation and disposal of criminal cases, particularly those approaching the prescribed 60-day and 90-day timelines, NDPS and UAPA cases, execution of court summons and warrants, and other matters concerning effective and accountable policing. The status of pending investigations and the need to reduce overall case pendency through timely and quality investigation were also emphasised.
SSP Awantipora directed all Investigating Officers to ensure the quantitative and qualitative disposal of cases under investigation within the prescribed timelines, with particular focus on cases nearing the 60-day and 90-day deadlines. He stressed that investigations must be conducted professionally and in accordance with the law to ensure speedy justice to victims. Officers were also directed to make concerted efforts to trace missing persons and ensure the timely execution of court summons and warrants.
The SSP emphasised the effective implementation of the new criminal laws and directed officers to ensure compliance with applicable legal provisions, including citizen-centric measures and the mandatory utilisation of forensic services wherever required under law. The importance of scientific investigation and the collection and preservation of evidence in criminal cases was also highlighted.
The officers were further directed to intensify efforts against drug trafficking and organised criminal activities, ensuring strict action against those involved in such offences. They were also instructed to strengthen surveillance over criminal elements in accordance with law and take appropriate preventive measures to curb criminal activities and safeguard the public.
Emphasising accountability and public trust, the SSP directed all officers to adopt a public-centric approach, ensure prompt redressal of public grievances and maintain professional conduct while dealing with the general public. He stressed that zero tolerance must be maintained towards corruption, deliberate non-registration or suppression of crime, and indiscipline at any level.

He directed all officers to uphold the highest standards of professionalism, accountability and efficiency while ensuring the safety and security of the public.
