Dhoolpet Police Station, a law enforcement institution with excellent community relations, has recently landed a segment on the popular streaming platform Aha. The spotlight on officers serves to provide an intimate view of both the challenges they face as well as the positive things that can be learned from them, as well as the everyday workings they carry out in the Dhoolpet area.
This feature, provided by Aha, offers an interesting storyline that reflects the resolve of the Dhoolpet Police Officers as enablers of peace and order within their territory. It includes a broad programme on the police, crime fighting, community outreach, and what effect modern technology will bring to policing efficiency by introducing an entire range of different technologies to combat crime. Dhoolpet Police and Aha have collaborated to raise awareness of public services through media coverage, creating an increasing number of stories and connecting law enforcement with the citizens the department is meant to help deliver public safety.
Through reaching a wider audience for those stories, we hope that this Dhoolpet police station feature can be an education for everybody in the local population that inspires them to trust and understand their own police.
Both residents and viewers have paid close attention to the use of Aha for their local police station’s work with the public. So the show makes clear what is needed: better communication will make society safer and more just. Aha means the Dhoolpet Police Station has been able to be more forward-thinking in public involvement than other police departments, who might have had very narrow paths to engage their community in such formative ways.
