On Tuesday, Union Home Minister Amit Shah launched the BHARATPOL portal in the national capital, stating that the initiative will elevate India’s international investigations in the coming days.
He stated, “BHARATPOL will take our country’s international investigations to a new era. The CBI was the only agency identified to work with Interpol, but with the launch of BHARATPOL, every Indian agency and all state police forces will easily be able to connect with Interpol.”
The BHARATPOL portal aims to streamline requests for international assistance through Interpol, including facilitating the issuance of Red Notices and other color-coded notices.
Home Minister Amit Shah praised the BHARATPOL portal, noting that it will allow India’s police departments to study and analyze global crimes, helping to create a framework to prevent such crimes from occurring in the country.
“Through this, we will be able to bridge many gaps, obtain a lot of information, and, with precision, analyze various types of global crimes, enabling us to create a framework to prevent these crimes before they occur in our country,” Shah asserted.
He further noted, “With BHARATPOL, every agency and state police force in the country will be able to connect with Interpol to expedite their investigations.”
Amit Shah also stated that BHARATPOL will not only help locate criminals but also establish a system to track international criminals within the country.
“Through BHARATPOL, we will be able to locate our criminals and also establish a streamlined system to locate criminals from around the world in India. Additionally, with references from Interpol, covering 195 countries, providing and receiving international assistance for investigations through the Interpol channel will become much easier,” said the Home Minister.
Honoring CBI Officers
During the event, Amit Shah also honored 35 CBI officers and officials with Police Medals, recognizing their exceptional service.
Among the awards were the President’s Police Medal for Distinguished Service and the Union Home Minister’s Medal for Excellence in Investigation.
