Lahaul & Spiti police win ‘Animesh Netram’

The Lahaul and Spiti District Police have been honored with the prestigious FICCI Smart Policing Award for its AI-driven surveillance project, Animesh Netram, under the Road Safety and Traffic Management category.

Superintendent of Police (SP) Mayank Chaudhary received the award at a ceremony in New Delhi. He highlighted that the 24/7 monitoring system has significantly enhanced security in the remote, high-altitude district. Equipped with advanced facial recognition, vehicle tracking, and real-time surveillance, Animesh Netram has strengthened crime prevention, traffic management, and disaster response.

Despite Lahaul and Spiti’s challenging terrain and harsh weather, the police successfully implemented the project, demonstrating their commitment to technology-driven law enforcement. “This national recognition from FICCI reaffirms our dedication to public safety and innovation,” SP Chaudhary stated.
