In the year 2014, crime registration has shown a sharp increase. This was because a conscious decision was taken to register all complaints which disclose the commission of a cognizable offence. Registered crime in Delhi was at
64882 IPC cases in 1998, which fell to 54287 in 2012 notwithstanding the fact that population grew exponentially, unplanned urbanization continued unabated and inequality in society soared. It was obvious that the crime statistics did not match with the actual crime situation prevalent in society. Therefore, in the backdrop of our new motto, Shanti, Sewa, Nyaya adopted in 2014, it was decided to change the mind set of police personnel and encourage them to register all cognizable offences reported to them. All field staff was suitably sensitized, enthused and also rewarded to carry out the policy of truthful registration of crime. This has resulted in increase in crime statistics reflecting the actual position of crime in the society. Street crime increased considerably, as police, were earlier shy of registering street crime. The genuine depiction of crime was a bold decision of Delhi Police, and in the long run it will certainly help Delhi Police in making proper strategy to tackle crime, in augmenting resources as per the reality, and in ensuring better service delivery.
Registration of crime till 15th December 2014, in absolute terms has increased manifold. The chart given below depicts the increase in the registration of crime because of the policy of truthful registration.

(1) Women
Safety of women remained on top priority for
Delhi Police during the year 2014. Several new initiatives were taken during the current year to strengthen the mechanism to handle this issue holistically. Many steps were taken previous year for women safety, for example, functioning of round the clock Women Help
Desk with dedicated telephone line, increasing the number of women helpline 1091 from 4 to
10, Thana Level Committee on women safety, security audit of paying guest accommodation and girls’ hostels, watch on vulnerable route, deployment of women in PCR van, and deployment of women in certain areas prone to crimes against women were reiterated and honed. The monthly interaction with Women
Help Groups and women NGOs with an officer of the rank of Spl. CP also continued. All field officers were time and again directed to register the cases related to assault on women without creating any jurisdictional dispute.
Women beat constable under the scheme
‘Parivartan’ continued their work in the areas where crimes against women are generally rampant. Publicity of women helpline number
1091 was also done by pasting posters in motor vehicles, public service transport and
18 ANNUAL REVIEW 2014 in resettlement/jhuggi areas. Special Police
Unit for Women and Children (SPUWAC) and districts organized self-defence training for girls to instill confidence in their mind. 15583 girls were trained in the self-defence training courses during the year 2014. Interaction with
Women Help Groups and NGOs was held at the district level also. Traffic Police took concerted action against TSR and taxi drivers for refusal and misbehaviour. Deployment at identified bus stops was done by Traffic Police as well as local police. Traffic Police took action against public transport vehicles having films and tinted glasses. Areas affected by refusal and misbehavior by TSR/taxi drivers were mapped and accordingly Traffic Police and local police were deployed at these places.
The instructions for the BPOs regarding safety of women was reiterated and like each year many meetings with BPOs were held to ensure that women employees of various BPOs feel secure during their journey from their homes to their workplace.
Directions were also issued to record the statement of victims under 164 CrPC within 24 hours of the reporting of crime in rape cases.
Awareness on Criminal Law Amendment Act
2013 and other laws dealing with sexual offences against women was made. For handling women victims of crime, Delhi Police deputed women officers on demand or on call to the ‘One Stop

Deen Dayal Upadhyay Hospital, Hari Nagar,
Sanjay Gandhi Hospital, Mangolpuri, and Guru
Teg Bahadur Hospital, Dilshad Garden by the
Health Department of GNCT.

(2) Children
Tracing missing children remains important priority for Delhi Police. In each case of missing of a child, FIR was registered immediately.
In 2014 (upto 15th December), 6227 cases were registered as against 5554 cases of the corresponding period of 2013.
All field units were directed repeatedly to account for each missing child and remove the anomaly, if any, between the number of children missing and the number of FIRs registered, and to register the case even if a missing child is traced soon. It was reiterated to upload the details of all missing children on
ZIPNET without any delay, to follow the SOP in this regard, and to take systematic action to trace the child. Crime Branch took the initiative of screening the children at Shelter Homes in order to link a missing child with the case registered in NCR of Delhi. Similarly, a drive has been launched to screen the children living at railway stations, bus stands, and near religious places so that they could be linked with the data of missing children, and accordingly recovered and handed over to their parents or guardian. It is also being checked whether the details of missing children are being uploaded on www.trackthemissingchild.
gov.in. The Crime Branch also analyzed the pattern of missing children particularly for the areas infested by this problem, and tried to find out whether organized gangs has any hand in this. The focus area in this regard is children from three to ten years of age who generally do not run away from home on their own.
In order to have the identity and photograph of a child particularly in the poor families, the campaign known as ‘Pehchan’ was launched in
2011 and the same continuous this year. Under this scheme, photographs of children from poor families not having the financial capacity to have a photograph taken, were taken and kept in a library of photographs which could be used in case a child goes missing. Around 31,000 children have been photographed under this scheme so far.
(3) Senior Citizens
Registration of Senior Citizens continued during this year also. Apart from the Senior Citizens living alone, the senior citizens who live alone at home for long hours as their children go out for work, are also being registered now with the Delhi Police.
Security audit of 20,553 Senior Citizens was conducted by local police to enhance their security. So far 18,766 Identity cards have been issued to the Senior Citizens registered with Delhi Police from 2012 to 2014 (upto 15th

Station staff and by the officials of Senior

(upto 15th December) 3,85,206 visits and
2,83,086 telephonic contacts have been made.

2014. The purpose of this App is to issue a report to an individual in case one loses important documents like passport, I-card,
Ration Card, Driving License, etc., so that the issuing authority can reissue a fresh document on the basis of the lost report. Earlier, for obtaining relevant report from police station in case of loss of a document, one had to go through the inconvenience of visiting a police station repeatedly. By entering relevant details on this mobile/web based application, one can lodge a lost report, and obtain a printable digitally signed report of the same, and use this document for getting a fresh document reissued from the concerned authority. So far more than seven lakh complaints have been registered on this platform.

This document is required for the purpose of visa application, admissions to several educational institutions, Job applications, etc. One can use this web App for obtaining a PCC. The basic details filled up by an applicant are automatically checked with the Crime Record Bureau. PCC is generated within seven days. So far 25,000 citizens have taken the benefit of online facility of the PCC.
3. Delhi Police traffic App this App was launched on 8 th May 2014 which enables the public to utilize the e-services provided by Delhi Traffic Police such as obtaining information about traffic alert and advisories to plan their journeys in advance. People can assess fare charges to be paid to auto/ taxi / radio cab drivers, calculate distance travelled and the shortest route to be taken for any journey in Delhi. Through this App complaints can be lodged against TSR/taxi drivers for misbehavior, refusal and overcharging.
Commuters can also access information about the unauthorized parked vehicles, towed away by Traffic Police for keeping in traffic pit.

5. Apps in the pipeline Delhi police is working on two important Apps. One is ‘Himmat’ which is for the security of women. Through this
App women in distress will be able to access the Police Control Room by pressing any alert button of their mobile phone. Another important App which is going to be released soon is related to registration and investigation of motor vehicle theft. A citizen can register his
FIR related to the loss of his vehicle through this
App from anywhere in the world. The digital system will search the stolen vehicle each day from the data of the recovered ones. After completion of investigation, electronic case diary will be sent to the court, and untraced report will also be generated and sent to the complainant electronically.

(1) Crimogenic factors
Delhi, being the capital of the country, has been developing at a rapid pace. This rapid urbanization has also led to certain factors which have a bearing towards the crime rate in the city. The large expansion of new colonies like Dwarka, Rohini, etc., and addition of thousands of unplanned colonies is an important crimogenic factor particularly for street crimes like robbery and snatching.
Other factors responsible for crime are as follows:-
Socio-economic imbalances,
Proximity of location of colonies of the affluent and the under-privileged,

(25.96%) cases were solved with the arrest of 2556 persons. 90.85% of the total arrested criminals were first time offenders and 61.47 % of them were illiterates or school drop-outs.
(7) M.V. Theft
In the year 2014 (upto 15th December), 22223
M.V. Theft cases have been reported as against 13895 cases in the corresponding period of the year 2013. Among the stolen vehicles, 15237 were two wheelers, 6019 cars and 994 other vehicles. 2322 (10.43%) stolen vehicles were recovered and 2925 auto lifters were arrested in the year 2014 (upto 15th
December). The M.V Thefts per lakh of vehicle population is 272.81.
Motor Vehicle Thefts accounted for around
15% of total IPC cases registered in Delhi.
The acute shortage of parking space and the general practice of parking vehicles on roadsides, and unwillingness of a majority of motor vehicle owners to install anti-auto theft equipment are major contributing factor.
