"Reviewed the status of 'Use of Technology in Policing' along with @CPDelhi, ACS (Home) and other senior officers today. It was informed that 24 Citizen-Centric Services like lodging e-FIR for motor vehicle/property theft, online reporting of Cyber Offences, Police Clearance Certificate etc are being provided online without human interface," he said in a series of tweets.

"While appreciating the efforts made by @DelhiPolice in ensuring online delivery of public services, emphasized the need to publicize these initiatives, particularly through vernacular media, to create wider public awareness," he said. Advised Delhi Police to put in place an institutional mechanism to ensure constant upgradation of technology and capacity building of human resources to avoid obsolescence, Baijal said in another tweet.
