Quest for more professional and service-minded cops

DMP sets up monitoring cell

City Correspondent
Dhaka Metropolitan Police in a praiseworthy bid to make the police stations more professional and service-based has formed an operational and administrative monitoring cell.
"Different operational and administrative orders are made from the office of the police commissioner to make DMP a legal service-based organisation and to establish professionalism at the highest level. Monitoring is needed to see whether these orders are duly followed and implemented,” said Tareq Bin Rashid, Assistant Commissioner, DMP Headquarter.
"The cell will investigate if there is any complaint of lax investigation in any case, whether the administrative and operational orders were carried out properly or if anyone is harassed while seeking legal assistance,” he said.
The cell will monitor and evaluate the real condition of administrative and operational works at the field level and at every unit, he added.
The monitoring cell includes seven members with additional police commissioner Abdus Salam as the chief.
According to sources in the police, there were lots of complaints from units of DMP and at the field level on executing administrative and operational works. Often problems were created just for lack of clarity in understanding the importance of the work
Many administrative and operational circulars are issued from the home ministry, police headquarters and DMP headquarters. A lot of officials lack the idea as to which of those are the most important and which should be done as early as possible. The pace of work suffers for mixing up most important, important and usual orders.
The sources said it takes a long time at the unit and police station level to carry out the orders. In case any police officer had a connection with political leaders nothing could be said for the non-compliance.
The initiative was taken to address these problems.
Divisional actions will be taken if anyone is found wasting time in carryingout orders.
To evaluate the state of execution of orders the cell will see whether the related officers have grasped the issued orders, whether they are executing orders according to their spirit or whether any misunderstanding was created in executing the orders. The cell will also monitor whether desired results were achieved in the light of executed orders or the orders are preserved duly. It will also look into the complaints of any negligence and abuse of orders and examine whether those orders should be revised in changing situation. In case of any negligence the report and other important matterswill be brought to the notice of the
police commissioner.
Saiful Alam Chowdhury, officer-in-charge (OO, Uttara PS, said that monitoring will be very useful in locating and amending mistakes.
"One of the undeniable facts about police is that they do lots of work and have to address a vast number of issues. Therefore, it is hard to give attention to specific issues and important details. If there is a monitoring body then important specific things will get attention. If there is any lapse we will be able to know that," he said.
AKM Daulat Akbar, OC, Ramna PS, said that proper implementation of the monitoring cell will help speed up the work of police.
“It is a very positive step. If implemented it will expedite the work of police and bring more transparency. We are now trying to make the police stations more service-oriented than before and it will help us in that direction," he said. "Monitoring will also help provide legal services to the people," he added.
