New Delhi: The Indira Gandhi International Airport (IGIA) and the Airport Metro Express Line may boast of international infrastructure but the nearby Airport Express Line police station is in a pathetic state.
Over the past two years, the police station lacks basic amenities like toilets and changing room for women constables.
The police station is being run from two small rooms. Moreover, at least 20 policemen are forced to sit in a single room.
Senior officials of the Delhi Police have submitted various letters to the Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) and GMR seeking basic facilities but the agencies have just been passing the buck.
Due to acute shortage of space, the guarantee and warranty of the computers have already expired while still in sealed packs. Further, FIRs are still being registered through old method of pen and paper as police cannot make use of electronic FIR system with the computers becoming mere showpieces.
"Agencies boast that Airport Express Line and Delhi International Airport are of world class but the agencies are unable to provide basic services to operate the police station since the past two years. Subsequently, the police are running one of the most prominent police stations in the national Capital from just two small rooms," a senior police official told MAIL TODAY.
