Mahmood Ali said the State government was taking all steps to strengthen the police department and providing the required funds to procure the latest technology to excel in the prevention and detection of all types of crimes. “The Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao had since the beginning emphasised on the need to have full control over the law and order in the State and it helped immensely in growth and development,” he said.
