When asked about the implementation of Crime and Criminal Tracking Networks and Systems (CCTNS), the Chief Minister said, the project aimed at comprehensive policing is being implemented very effectively.
CCTNS is a Government of India project to create a comprehensive and integrated system for effective policing through e-Governance. The project is being implemented by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB). It seeks to integrate all data and crime records into a single Core Application Software (CAS) covering all States and Union Territories.
A senior state police official said that a total of 894 police stations in Bihar have already been brought under CCTNS and around 202 more police stations will be covered by the end of this year. The project was started after the 2008 Mumbai terrorist attacks.
