C DOT partners Delhi Police to deploy 9 tech solutions for policing

The Centre for Development of Telematics (C-DOT) has signed a memorandum of understanding with Delhi Police to deploy nine advanced solutions, purpose-built for modern policing requirements in the national capital, an official statement said on Saturday.

The partnership aims to "leverage C-DOT's portfolio of cutting-edge, homegrown technological solutions to boost the operational efficiency, secure communications, surveillance, cybersecurity, and emergency response capabilities of Delhi Police."

C DOT will deploy solutions including a Facial Recognition System (FRS)/FraudPro for suspect or missing person identification and crowd monitoring.

It can identify repeat offenders through photograph-matching with available databases, strengthening investigation processes, crowd monitoring, and identity verification during law-and-order deployments, the statement said. SAMVAD, a unified communication platform for one-to-one and group chats, audio/video calls, and official data sharing, enabling seamless and secure coordination across units, districts, and specialised branches during both routine operations and emergencies, will also be deployed.

The collaboration reinforces the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat in the domain of public safety and law enforcement, the Ministry of Communications said in the statement.

SAMVAD Prime, a dedicated specialised handset-based secure messaging system will be deployed among senior officers and operational teams to ensure confidentiality and integrity during critical operations.

C-DOT Meet, a secure web-based video conferencing solution featuring multi-camera access, presentation sharing, and collaborative whiteboards, will facilitate briefings, inter-unit coordination, and training sessions.
