Speaking after launching the initiative, Cyberabad Police Commissioner VC Sajjanar said old age was one of the toughest phases in an individual’s life.

“During the pandemic, it was the senior citizens who were badly affected. However, through this initiative, we want to reach out to each and every senior citizen and ensure things which they need are provided to them. If we do our bit, this will motivate others to do their part and in turn we can reach out to each elderly person who needs support,” Sajjanar said.

Madhapur DCP M. Venkateshwarlu, said to implement the initiative, brochures were designed, through which collecting data of senior citizens would be done.

“Our officers will go personally to each senior citizen and give them these brochures, and make them know facilities that will be rolled out to them through these initiatives. We are hoping to serve the senior citizens in the best possible way,” the DCP said.

I urge each and every officer from Cyberabad to understand these technologies for effective use and for proper results,” Sajjanar said. The new devices launched included Blue Colt jackets and helmets, electric scooters, bodyworn cameras and thermal printers.
