He stressed the need for a focused approach in handling the misuse of financial institutions, mobile, and internet platforms in such cybercrimes.
Addressing the scourge of road traffic accidents, DGP GP Singh underscored the importance of a holistic approach to improving traffic movement, positioning the Assam Police as a major stakeholder and a catalyst for positive change.
Further, the DGP called for continued improvements in investigations, aiming for an enhanced rate of charge sheets and convictions. He urged the utilisation of forensic potential as outlined in the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita, Bhartiya Nagrik Suraksha Sanhita, and Bhartiya Sakhshya Sanhita, foreseeing a qualitative change in the lives of the people of Assam.
While reiterating focus areas, DGP GP Singh emphasised a policy of zero tolerance for misconduct among Assam Police personnel.

Any form of sexual and financial misconduct within these premises would remain unacceptable.
