The induction of these vehicles has been undertaken to reduce police response time, particularly in remote and densely-populated areas to improve visibility and to galvanise the overall functioning of the PCR Unit.

These MPVs have been allocated to Dwarka, Outer North, South, South-West, Rohini, Outer, and South-East districts.

The refurbished Omni Motorcycles have been redeployed with the objective of enhancing police accessibility and presence in narrow lanes and congested localities.

The total strength of the PCR fleet has now increased from 802 to 857 vehicles.
