Odisha Government to act upon ‘Zero FIR’ policy soon: CM

Bhubaneswar, Nov 7: In view of efficient police services for common citizens, the Odisha government is all set to act upon ‘Zero FIR’ policy said Odisha CM Mohan Majhi on Thursday.

Attending a program at the Lok Seva Bhawan in Bhubaneswar relating to dispensation of justice and efficient policing Majhi said that his government is committed to the cause of justice. Apart from it, the state is also committed to provide accessible and efficient police services to citizens even at their homes.

Underlining the robust ways of police services, Majhi said that, each and every complaint will be registered by police. No police station can refuse to register a complaint filed by a denizen.

The CM further said that, victims need not be present in the PS personally to lodge an FIR. The police are as such bound to lodge an FIR even the complainant is from out of the jurisdiction of the concerned police. 

Complaints of this nature will be considered as a ‘Zero FIR’ which will be referred to the respective police station for further action and assistance. However, the police will act on the primary information at the earliest and provide assistance to the victim. Later on, it should be forwarded to the adequate officials, the CM added.

Similarly, the police can’t summon a handicapped person, a minor below 15 years of age or an elderly citizen to the police station in odd hours, without an exigency or anticipating critical outcomes involving the persons, Majhi added.
