Sandeep Khriwar, the outgoing Commissioner of Police, has been appointed as IGP of Rohtak Range.

The new IGP is keen on crime mapping of the city that would help to identify areas where crimes such as snatching and vehicle lifting happen frequently. This, he said, will help in preparing an elaborate action plan.

Removing traffic congestion also figures prominently on his agenda. “We will identify the areas that witness regular congestion and try to find out new diversions and other measures,” said Rao.
