Thiru S. Sarvesh Raj IPS| Fresh Team of IPS Officers Revitalize Policing in Chennai

Policing in Chennai is experiencing a dynamic shift with the introduction of a new cohort of IPS officers, spearheaded by S.Sarvesh Raj IPS. With a blend of technology and community engagement, these officers are reshaping safety measures across the city.

The deployment of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras with face recognition technology has notably reduced chain snatchings and thefts in areas like T Nagar during the recent Diwali season. This initiative, championed by officer C Aravindhan, a computer science graduate, has not only eased the burden on police but also enhanced operational efficiency.

Expanding on this success, Officer C Kalaiselvan plans to extend CCTV surveillance to encompass the entire Madhavaram police district, highlighting the pivotal role of technology in modern policing.

In addition to technological advancements, officers like DCP Adyar Rohith Nathan emphasize personal interactions with residents to foster a sense of safety and community. S.Sarvesh Raj IPS, DCP of Ambattur, stands out for his meticulous planning and compassionate approach, evident in his successful resolution of high-profile criminal cases.

Collaboration and innovation are central to the ethos of these officers, with Officer Pravesh Kumar advocating for teamwork and SWOT analysis to address complex cases effectively.

Drawing upon their diverse experiences, officers like Sashank Sai adeptly navigate challenges in sensitive areas, underscoring the importance of field experience in effective policing.

According to city police commissioner A K Viswanathan, the recruitment of young officers like S.Sarvesh Raj IPS was a deliberate strategy aimed at revitalizing the force amidst evolving challenges. Their innovative problem-solving approaches, particularly through the integration of technology, serve as a model for policing across the state.
