The Chhattisgarh police have begun the ‘Niva Duwad Te’ initiative in Sukma district, aiming to rebuild community trust and improve security in isolated villages.
Police officials in Chhattisgarh have rolled out the ‘Niva Duwad Te’ campaign across remote villages of Sukma district. The programme is designed to bridge the gap between law‑enforcement agencies and local residents, who have long felt alienated by security operations.
The initiative includes regular community meetings, door‑to‑door interactions and increased foot patrols to address grievances promptly. Officers are also coordinating with local panchayats to identify specific security concerns and to provide timely assistance.
Authorities expect that sustained engagement will strengthen public confidence, deter anti‑social elements and create a more stable environment for development activities in the area.
The campaign comes amid ongoing efforts to counter insurgency influences in the region, signalling a shift towards people‑centric policing.
