Colourful Room With Child-Friendly Amenities At One More Police Station In Odisha Capital

Bhubaneswar: Twin City Commissioner of Police Saumendra Priyadarshi on Friday inaugurated a child-friendly room and a reception centre at Nayapalli police station in Odisha Capital.

“It is aimed at making children comfortable while accompanying their parents to lodge a complaint at the police station. This is another step towards making the police stations in the city citizen-friendly,” said the CP, adding that such facilities are already available at Capital police station, Mahila police station and Airfield police station.

The police stations with child-friendly amenities and ambience have their interiors painted to attract the children and are equipped with soft toys, a library having animated storybooks and swings for children, besides, a crèche.

The CP further said all important police stations in the city will soon have such facilities.

City Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) Prateek Singh and other senior officials were present on the occasion.

In 2022, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik announced the opening of a Sampark Help Desk and 16 child-friendly police stations across the state.
