The Regional Police Officers (RPOs) Conference
gave the go-ahead to launch Lahore’s mobile application ‘E-Gadget’ across the
province to curtail mobile theft and other crimes.
Punjab Inspector General of Police (IGP), Amjad
Javed Saleemi, presided over the conference. The conference decided to train
two officers in every district for E-Gadget app’s activation.
The app, developed by Punjab Information
Technology Board (PITB), is used for tracing and recovering stolen and snatched
phones. It generates an alert to the police control room on a possible sale of
a snatched or stolen phone. The app will check if an FIR is registered against
the IMEI number of the phone or not.
It was also decided to establish a system that
enables the plaintiffs to download a copy of their First Information Report
(FIR) from home or any other destination rather than visiting police stations.
The conference also agreed to digitize police’s
development projects by Police Management System.
