(a) whether the Government has drawn up any plan for providing effective policing in new/up
coming/isolated areas in the periphery of the NCT of Delhi including new sub-cities in view of
the rising crime graph in such places;
(b) if so, the details thereof; and
(c) the details of new police stations/ pickets/PCR vans etc. sanctioned for

MINISTER OF STATE IN THE MINISTRY OF HOME AFFAIRS(SHRI MULLAPPALLY RAMACHANDRAN)
(a) & (b): Yes Madam. On the basis of crime-mapping, particularly of heinous crimes such as
murder, dacoity, robbery and snatching, Police Station jurisdictions were re-organized and 09
Sub Divisions and 29 Police Stations were created in September, 2009 which included 7 Police
Stations already being run from the existing resources. This has substantially addressed the
shortage of Police Stations in areas outside the Ring Road where there had been a substantial
increase of population, urbanization and also the crime. These new Police Stations, will go a
long way in improving the policing of the National Capital and well ensure a safer and more
secure Delhi.
(c): The details of new Police Stations/Sub-Divisions are given in annexure. On creation of 09
new Sub Divisions and 29 Police Stations, a total number of 337 vehicles of different
categories i.e. 38 PCR Vans, 270 Motor Cycles and 29 Pick-ups have been sanctioned for Delhi
Police. Separately, 130 PCR Vans have also been sanctioned for the Delhi Police under Police
Modernization Scheme for the year 2008-2009.
