CID CRIME
BRANCH - “OPERATION MUSKAAN”
A special campaign “Operation Muskaan” was undertaken by
officials of CID Crime Branch during the month of July, 2015
to rescue and rehabilitate the missing/abandoned children in
Puducherry.
The particulars of all the untraced Missing Children of
Puducherry U.T. since 2000 were collected by the officials
of CB CID. A special team under Inspector A. Kahidhaasam
was formed to visit public places, to rescue
missing/abandoned children and to rehabilitate them by
handing over them to the Shelter Homes after producing them
before the CWC, Puducherry. Second team was formed under
Inspector N. Selvam assisted by PSI N. Santhosh to visit all
the Child Care Homes in Puducherry and Karaikal to screen
the children in Shelter Homes, for missing children.
As a part of “Operation Muskaan”, the Officials of CID Crime
Branch, Social Welfare Department, Child Welfare Committee
and NGOs visited 67 Child Care Homes in Puducherry and
Karaikal regions. The orphans and rescued children were
screened with missing children data. The particulars of
Shelter Homes were collected. It was found that 34 orphan
children are staying in 15 different Shelter Homes in
Puducherry and Karaikal regions. Neither they know their
parents nor their place of origination. Their identity could
not be established.
During “Operation Muskaan” total 14 Children were rescued
from Streets, Railway Station, Temples, Beach, Park, etc.
They were produced before the Child Welfare Committee and
were handed over to Sandosha Nanban, the Child Care Home as
ordered by CWC. Out of the 14 rescued children, the parents
of 13 children were traced and they were reunited with their
parents through CWC, Puducherry.
The particulars and photographs of 34 orphan children,
suspected to be the missing children, were collected and the
same have been uploaded in the Track Child Web Portal of
Ministry of Women and Child Development, Govt. of India and
also on the website of Puducherry Police. The Staff of CB
CID were also dispatched to the probable localities of such
orphan children to trace their parents, but the efforts did
not yield desired result. The list of such children has
been sent to the Chairperson, CWC Puducherry to conduct
field verification of the available data of such orphans.
The effort to trace their parents and place of origination
is underway.
During the visits to Shelter Homes, it was found
that 24 Child Care Institutions (19 in Puducherry and 5 in
Karaikal) are functioning without valid license from the
Competent Authority. Hence, a letter enclosing the list of
such Homes has been sent to the Director, Department of
Social Welfare, Puducherry for taking appropriate action in
the matter.

CRIME AGAINST WOMEN
INITIATIVES
The
Puducherry Police have established a Rape Crisis
Intervention Centre (RCIC) as a one step centre to deal with
any rape case relating to women or child.
To sensitise women, Puducherry
Police held several programs for students in schools and
colleges. The sensitization programes at Sarvalaya School,
Idhaya College, College of Nursing, East Coast Institute of
Medical Sciences, Kanjimamunivar Arts & Science College,
Bharathidasan Govt. College for Women received excellent
response.
Not only the students but even
Police Officers were sensitized about women issues. In a
bid to educate police officers on legal procedures to deal
with cases regarding crime against women and children, one
day legal workshop was organised for Lady Police Officers
and were sensitized them to register FIR showing due
sensitivity whenever, a lady victim comes to Police Station.
Puducherry Police shared the
stage in panel discussion on Women’s Day at Hotel Surguru on
8th March 2015 to give message and sensitise the
general public about women safety.
The milestone of the project
women’s safety was a self defence training module for girls
conducted at Susilabai College which was a grand success as
it was demonstrated in front of 1,200 students (from class 6th
to class 12th). In view of the increasing
reports of violence and abuse against children and women,
the self defence module was conducted, to defend
themselves. The self-defence module, gave courage and
confidence to the girls. The simple ideas were shown for the
protection. S.P. Rachna Singh led the training with her
team to give tips and gave demonstrations to the students.
They were given simple ideas like use of heir pin, attack on
sensitive parts like eye brows, eyes, Adam’s apple, private
part, etc.
This would daze the assailant, giving them time to escape.
Simple Martial Art steps were also told which could be
easily used by the girls to protect themselves. On this
occasion volunteers from NGO’s and Psychiatrists also
addressed the students, listened to them, and also offered
their support if the girls needed support on issue inside or
outside their homes. A list of important helpline numbers
were also told to the students and the school management
were requested to put all these numbers on their Notice
Boards, so that more and more students could be made aware
about these numbers. This self-defence programe was highly
appreciated by the students, public and the media.
On 04.08.2015 another self-defence
and a programe against sexual harassment at work places was
conducted at Athithi Hotel, where several self defence
techniques, safety measures which could be adopted were
told. Also the sexual harassment at work place was defined
and initiatives for their safety were briefed.

ABOUT MITRA |

MITRA – SOS “PANIC BUTTON” MOBILE APPLICATION
INTRODUCTION
It is true that it is
Modern World and everyone is always engaged
with stress of various natures (Family / Work /
Illness). Police not rolled
out, as they engage with court duties, senior
officer meeting, public agitations, emergencies,
incidents etc. Thereby, we cannot expect everyone
to anticipate or access our Emergency SMS / email.
Helping or assisting rescue work
is a
special character
who volunteers to help others ignoring his work and
stress. We cannot expect everyone, unless we feel
they are our CARE TAKERS. Such Care Takers
may be from Friends, Relatives, Police, NGOs,
Organizations, and Politics etc., as we deems fit.
Hence, concept of selecting more than 3 or 5 or 10
Care-Takers as Emergency Contacts is must.
Emergency also differs.
Some may require the assistance of Family Members or
Husband or Friend or Police.
Installation and Configuration plays major role:
Primary steps: Download the application, install it. Then configure
