Mangaluru: ADGP (Law & Order) Alok Mohan held a press meet to discuss the security arrangements undertaken for the ZP & TP elections in the Western Range at the Police Commissioner’s Office here, on February 17.

Addressing the mediapersons, ADGP Alok said, “Already the first phase of the elections have concluded in Uttar Kannada and the second phase will be held in Dakshina Kannada, Udupi and Chikkamagaluru districts that come under the Western Range (WR). There are 2737 polling booths in the WR of which 268 are marked as hyper-sensitive, 732 are sensitive and 1583 are normal. In Mangaluru, 42 booths are marked as hyper-sensitive, 134 sensitive and 186 are normal booths.”

He further said, “There are 164 booths that come under the naxal affected areas of which, 61 are identified in Dakshina Kannada, 64 in Udupi and 39 in Chikkamagaluru. These booths will be guarded by special armed units and Anti Naxal Force (ANF) will conduct routine combing operations in these areas. We have a strong police force with 2500 personnel and additional 3000 police personnel will be stationed with 2000 home guards and special commandos during the election phase.”

“There has been no reported issue pertaining to naxalites in the area from the past year or so; the only problem we have is with the border along Kerala state and we have had co-ordination meetings with the police of Kerala and Goa who have helped us by setting up check posts along the border. Other preventive measures include placing all habitual offenders under preventive custody. In the WR, 16 people are booked under the Goonda Act from last December, of which 3 are from Mangaluru. The number of offenders booked under the Goonda Act all over the state is around 100,” ADGP Alok said.

Alok Mohan IPS Getting organized pays us handsome rewards. We must avoid drowning in a sea of official procedure & increase our output with efficient systems & focus on information flow. Disorganization costs time, money, disturbance and perhaps our health too. What we need is the inspiration to modify the accessible tools and methods.   Getting organized pays us handsome rewards. As we are aware that a messy and a chaotic desk always contributes to loss of control, lack of focus, incomplete work, lost information and missed deadlines. The only cure to get out from such situations is that we should  “Be wise & organize” and the fact of organizing is we need to file it, action it, calendar it and last but not the least trim it. To find a place for all your credentials is one thing but in reality find them, literally in seconds, when you need them is more vital. As an individual, you must have a “System”, a  time-tested filing system and you see you become  Pape
