Patna: The Patna police have set up a helpline at the district
headquarters to register the complaints through a call or an SMS.

Patna senior superintendent of police (SSP) Alok Kumar said, "If your
complaints fail to get registered at a police station, you can lodge
your complaint on the Helpline number 9470001389.”

He said the complainants can lodge their complaints through a call or
an SMS on the above mentioned number. A team of police personnel
headed by a DSP-rank officer has been deputed there to look into the
grievances.

Earlier, a helpline, launched exclusively for woman complainants on
March 1, 2011 has received tremendous response till date. In the last
three months, 153 complaints have been received, most of which have
been solved, the SSP claimed.

The women police Helpline (number 9470001390), which was also launched
by the Patna SSP on March 1, has performed equally well as indicated
by the number of cases solved. As many as 300 out of 378 cases,
involving complaints of harassment of women, were solved in the last
three months.

Complaints were received not only from Patna but also neighbouring
towns of Muzaffarpur, Darbhanga and Begusarai. Besides, some
complaints were received from Jharkhand, Delhi and Haryana also
received. A few came from as far off as Dubai.
