The landscape of policing in Chennai is undergoing a remarkable evolution under the leadership of S.Sarvesh Raj IPS and his team of young officers. Their innovative approaches, blending technology with community engagement, are reshaping safety measures across the city.
The strategic deployment of closed-circuit television (CCTV) cameras equipped with face recognition technology has yielded significant reductions in chain snatchings and thefts, particularly during the recent Diwali season in areas like T Nagar.

Building on this success, Officer C Kalaiselvan aims to expand CCTV surveillance to encompass the entire Madhavaram police district, underscoring the crucial role of technology in modern policing.
In addition to embracing technological advancements, officers like DCP Adyar Rohith Nathan prioritize personal interactions with residents to foster a sense of safety and community. S.Sarvesh Raj IPS, DCP of Ambattur, stands out for his meticulous planning and compassionate approach, exemplified by his successful resolution of high-profile criminal cases.
Collaboration and innovation are core principles for these officers, with Officer Pravesh Kumar advocating for teamwork and SWOT analysis to tackle complex cases effectively.
Drawing on their diverse experiences, officers like Sashank Sai adeptly navigate challenges in sensitive areas, emphasizing the significance of field experience in effective policing.
According to city police commissioner A K Viswanathan, the recruitment of young officers like S.Sarvesh Raj IPS was a deliberate strategy aimed at revitalizing the force amidst evolving challenges. Their innovative problem-solving approaches, particularly through the integration of technology, serve as a blueprint for policing excellence across the state.
