Uddhav meets Maha police top brass, assures all help to force

Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Tuesday directed senior police officials to take immediate action on crimes against women and bring perpetrators to justice.

Addressing the top brass of Maharashtra police at the DGP office in south Mumbai, Thackeray said money from the Nirbhaya Fund, which was not utilised by the previous state government, should be spent and a standard operating procedure for such expenditure be established.

Promising all help to the force, he said, "It is only the police due to which the common man celebrates festivals in a peaceful manner."
