UP Police to get a chopper to keep eye on Naxalite activity
Uttar Pradesh Police will soon acquire a Rs 25 crore Dhruv advanced light helicopter for surveillance in Naxal-affected areas, quick movement of commandos and evacuation.

The nine-seater HAL-built helicopter can be modified to carry up to 12 passengers. During relief and and rescue operations, it can carry two stretchers and four medicos, an official said.

"The helicopter will be handed over to the police soon. Its availability with the police force would help in quickening response time of the specialised forces to attend to emergency situations," UP Police chief Karamvir Singh said.

The order for purchasing the helicopter has already been placed, ADG A K Jain said. "The Civil Aviation department is looking after the procedure regarding the purchase," Jain said. "Main purpose of getting the helicopter is to strengthen the vigilance in Naxal-affected areas of Uttar Pradesh. An aerial watch on the jungles would help the police forces in targeting the Naxals."

Till now, IAF helicopters helped the police with aerial surveillance of Naxal-affected and also assisted in relief and rescue operations.

Asked about the UP Police's strategy to tackle Naxals in the state, Singh said the police had "developed a relaxed approach, with the notion that Naxals groups are active merely in adjacent states and they are not intruding in our jurisdiction".

"They suddenly appear and cause a major loss to state machinery and lives of police forces," Singh said.

Singh said that contrary to popular belief that only three districts — Chandauli, Mirzapur and Sonbhadra — were Naxal-affected, the menace had spread to other parts of the state as well. "Areas bordering MP in Mahoba and Chitrakoot district of UP have become new targets for Naxal groups. They are targeting the oppressed sections in these districts for fresh recruitment," Singh said.

Jammu & Kashmir police to soon have remotely operated vehicles to detect IEDs
Jammu and Kashmir police will soon become the first police force in the country to use remotely operated vehicles (ROV) to detect Improvised Explosive Devices (IEDs) in all conditions, including under water.

The tenders to procure ROVs have will be opened on February 15, sources said. Each ROV costs between Rs 5 to Rs 20 crore.

The ROVs will also be used for bomb detection.

The ROV, capable of operating underwater, is a tethered mobile device. It is remotely controlled and highly manoeuvrable.

Currently, only the Army possess ROVs, Daksh, designed by the DRDO. Daksh is capable of locating, handling and destroying all types of hazardous objects.

According to police sources, it will be for the first time that police in any part of India will be getting ROVs.

The machine will help police minimise the risk of fatalities in militancy-hit Kashmir where militants often plant IEDs and other explosive to target the security forces.
