” 5,038 lost/stolen mobile devices were recovered in a span of 110 days, of which the last 1,000 were recovered in 16 days and handed over to complainants”, the release issued on Tuesday said.
Telangana Director General of Police Anjani Kumar congratulated Mahesh Bhagwat and team for consistent monitoring and helping unit level teams in achieving this feat. Telangana Police recovering mobile phones using CEIR portal has proven to be a boon to citizens of the state, the DGP said.
To enhance user friendliness and serve the citizens of Telangana more efficiently the Telangana Police in coordination with DoT has integrated CEIR portal with Telangana State Police Citizen Portal, the release said.
As a result, citizens are encouraged to utilise this service on the Telangana State Police Citizen Portal instead of visiting ‘MeeSeva’ or Police Stations for reporting lost or missing mobile devices, it added.
