Haryana stands first in Pragati dashboard
The 29th meeting of the State Apex Committee for Crime and Criminal Tracking Network and Systems (CCTNS) was presided over by Haryana Chief Secretary Vivek Joshi here on Monday.
At the meeting an official said Haryana had consistently topped the Pragati Dashboard 29 times in the past 39 months, showcasing the sustained excellence and commitment of the state police force since June 2021.
The portal is supervised by the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) for all states and union territories. In addition, Haryana Police have also achieved a perfect 10/10 score on the right to services (RTS) dashboard for citizen services provided through the HarSamay portal. As of December 26, the Haryana Police completed over 64,57,071 applications, processing them within the prescribed timelines. This performance has placed the Haryana Police at the forefront among all departments in the state, with the highest number of applications processed through the Saral portal.
The e-Summon facility was successfully implemented in Sirsa district which was selected for the pilot project. The Chief Secretary was informed that e-Summon portal would be made operational by January 31 in the state. The provision of sending alerts from e-Prsions to SHOs and SPs concerned on the release of wanted persons and repeated offenders had been made.
Significant developments were also reported during the meeting regarding implementing various technological initiatives. On November 21, 2024, a live dashboard was integrated into the CCTNS core application software, as part of the DGs/IGs conference. The addition aims to further streamline the tracking of crime and criminal data in real time. Furthermore, the introduction of the e-Sign facility in the FIR (IIF-1) system on November 29, 2024, and in the Final Form (IIF-5) system on December 20, 2024, is expected to bring greater efficiency to the documentation and processing of the police records.
The Haryana Police has also seen a notable rise in the number of e-Sakshya users, which grew from 14,872 users on August 30, 2024, to 17,655 by December 27, 2024. In line with its efforts to improve operational efficiency, the State Crime Records Bureau (SCRB) has developed a CCTNS Mobile App for iOS. The app will soon be made available to further enhance the mobility and accessibility of CCTNS services for officers on the ground. Additionally, the Haryana Police are working on installing virtual private networks (VPNs) to facilitate secure access on mobile devices, with support from Hartron and NIC being sought for the installation process.
The Additional Chief Secretary, Home, Dr Sumita Misra, said the state government was strengthening the prosecution department by creating law officer posts under the new criminal laws and filling the vacancies.
